Thanks, Patrick. You seem to misunderstand my original question. I didn't want to do it from VFP (and have no idea how to do if from VFP either), but wanted to do it from GroupWise. Anyway, it was a one-time problem, I hadn't solved it, but it's not needed now anyway.

BTW, I may use this approach in a future for some non-trivial situations, so thanks for the idea.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
