Ok. Will do. I'll let everyone know how things turn out. Something tells me
that it's going to wind up being a combination of all the great info I get
here again :^).

Thanks, dewd.

P.S.

I don't know about you folks, but I'm starting to think that VFP's parser
is either brain dead or.....brain dead :^). (Just picking!) Seriously,
and after looking the code for a bit, VFP "seems" to be VB on
steroids. That is, VB with an SQL-specific lexicon tagged on. I'm
wondering if anyone out there in Microsoft land can fill us in, please?
