Peter,

my message was sent as a "better safe than sorry" advice, because I really don't know what you risk by using doCreate. But I'm always careful and avoid using "undocumented features" at all cost.

And to avoid "putting more gasoline on the fire" I hereby step, humbly, out of this thread. :-)

>>DoCreate is a function which is used internally by VFP, you should normally ignore it completely, since you can actually make VFP behave "strange" by using it. There is a reason why this function is not mentioned in the "normal" docs.
