Ah-ha! Thank you! And, not to let Fabio claim all the glory <g>, I think . . . THINK . . . I caught this first and I did report it via that official VFP bug reporting site. Chalk one up for me. How far do I have to go to catch up to Fabio? <g>

Now the question is, will it get fixed? I didn't examine Fabio's posting in detail, but my repro code that I posted shows an unintended record pointer movement, which is very serious, IHMO.

>>Well, heck, if you're doing this (I've never heard of an MS person doing this before), could you please check out a bug I've reported but that does not seem to be acknowledged by MS? Got to the UT downloads section and search under the last name of Campbell. The only file that comes up is the one that details this bug. This bug was introduced in version 8, AFAIK. Fabio has posted a comment with more detail and a workaround, but this is still a bug and it results in an unintended record pointer movement, which is always serious in my book, and it needs to be fixed. (Of course, it's hard to fix it when MS won't acknowledge it.)
