Hi,

That sounds like like a name-expression issue to me...
When you have an open alias named 'cView', then USED('cView') returns true and you can 'SELECT cView'.
But when you have a name expression, e.g. a local variable 'cView' that contains the alias name as a string, then you'd need to put the quotes differently:

Local cView
cView = "theAlias"
Use theTable In 0 Again Alias (cView)
? Used(cView) && true
? Used(theAlias) && error 12
? Used("cView") && false
? Used("theAlias") && true
Select theAlias && ok
Select (cView) && ok
