As I said, you need to end the @MENU processing, which is not in update 
mode, and then do something to take you into update mode, and continue your 
processing there.

You are still only providing bits and pieces of your processing.  What 
happens between lines 3 and 12, for example?

However, the two main things I see are that you do not show how @MENU ends 
prior to the SCREEN statement at line 200 (from your comment above, I assume 
that you aren't ending it), and it appears that you use the PUSHKEY before 
your INPUT POPUP, meaning that the "U" goes there, and not to filePro's 
"enter selection" prompt to take you into update mode.
