>I am having a problem in one of my applications, and I think it may be careless use of the ZAP command. A table is getting cleared when I don't want it to. If I have code like below, if there are no records in the DEAL table and I try to ZAP it, are there any consequences? Should I be issuing the ZAP command within the IF statement?

Consequences? You will probably lose a fraction of a second. Visual FoxPro won't bomb out if you try to ZAP a table with zero records.
