I am in the default datasession and vfp doesn't know about yjis alais. I even put a set datasession to 1 right before the code and vfp still doesn't know about the alias "rac". The code for for my main startup is in a prg file and the code that selects the alias is in a program file. I do open a form that has a progreesbar on it but that forms datasession is set to 1 also. What more can I do?????

Thanks
John
