This is true. All multi-table join result sets will be read-only. It is up
to the application front-end to accommodate such read-only result sets and
provide a means for updating the data in the separate base tables.
Different front-end software packages handle this differently. Gary pointed
out how you might go about handling this in Visual dBASE. In C++Builder and
Delphi, it is handled different from that (using cached updates). And in
other software packages still differently.

Can you elaborate on exactly what you meant by the above? In your original
SQL statement, the column hyd_flow.FLOW_AVAIL appeared only one time. So I
do not understand what you meant by not showing three times.

Did you mean in three records the hyd_flow.FLOW_AVAIL column was blank
(when you expected a non-NULL value)? Could this be a result of the query's
OUTER JOIN and non-matching records?
