I select certain data into a cursor:

Select ...
  INTO CURSOR csrStep2 NOFILTER READWRITE 

and later similar data into another:

Select ...
 INTO CURSOR csrStep2a NOFILTER READWRITE 

A little bit later I need to amalgamate them:

Select csrStep2
If FILE( "csrStep2a.dbf")
   Append From DBF("csrStep2a")
EndIf

I need to check 1st if csrStep2a exists cos sometimes the 2nd Select bears no results and so the append gives an error.

The FILE() fails and it doesn't happen. I guess it's because the cursors get weird system gen'd names and get buried in a \temp folder.

So, I'm having what the Americans call a "brain fart" at the moment. I've been runnin' an' shootin' and fightin' all day and now I can't think how to find the other cursor and check if it exists.

Somebody HELP meh!
