Hmm, that's odd. I've tried it on a few computers at work and on my home computers, all of which causes a C5. One of my home computers is basically VFP 9.0 installed w/o any special environment settings and it C5's.

If I can ask a quick question, you were able to see the SetRelationalExpression method and press the “(“ key and you didn’t get a C5 Error, right? (I wouldn’t ask this silly question if I hadn’t tried this on several machine with the same results, oh and I want to make sure you could see this method)

Another quick question, could it be another none VFP environment issues?
