Is one of these techniques better than the other? Is there a disadvantage to using the asterisk wildcard? Both seem to work okay but want to be sure I'm not setting a disadvantageous precedent.

Example #1:

select MyTable
for i = 1 to fCount()
lcFieldList = lcFieldList + ’MyTable.’ + Field(i) + ’,’
endfor

select &lcFieldList from MyTable into cursor MyCursor


Example #2:

select MyTable.* from MyTable into cursor MyCursor



Thank for any opinions.
