>Yes, that's the one. I am not issuing a getfile() anywhere in the app, but the behavior shows up as the details form opens.
Since you're in VFP9, you can
Set Tableprompt Off
and you should get an error instead of file dialog. That'd be easier to track. Or... maybe not, this covers only the cases where you try to do something on a missing alias. Worth a try, at least.

I tried your idea, but it didn't fix the trouble. I am wondering if the table name could be the problem. It is a variable in braces.
USE (filename) in 2
is how it is established and
Select 2
is how it is called when the error occurs.
I ain't skeert of nuttin eh?
Yikes! What was that?
