Hi Cetin

I just found out what experience is all about.
This is great. I like the prg idea, but mem is attractive too. Anyway in the morning session to get the table to be used the command
USE (lcCursor)
was creating problems since yesterday giving an error like 'c:\vso3\ssss\ddd\'c:\vso3\ssss\ddd\tempname.dbf is not found was solved by
USE &lcCursor.
and now I can use the file. I will get more into your suggstions, which is your favourite if variable type was the utmost important for you, precision and all.
This is a great thread for me. Thanks.
