>>Fabio,
>>It's a bug as agreed. Why would I ever reindex it. Assuming there might be a need, yes reindex kills the index but still you can give a kiss and bring it back to life in 2-3 lines of code.

Yes why not, VFP does it fast enough. ie:

Reindex
Select * from CursorTest into cursor temp
Select cursortest
Zap
Append From dbf('temp')
USE in 'temp'

In practice would you ever reindex a cursor. I never did:) Actually I wouldn't use bintoc() with cursors either.
