Mo,

The GPF is most likely a memory conflict with something else that is running at the time. The most common causes of these memeory conflicts are the video driver and the printer driver. You can try running your code using the generic vga video driver that comes with windows and see if the error goes away, if it does thne you need to contact the manufacturer of your video board to find out if there is a newer driver for it.

All cusros names are only alias' and they cannot contain drive references. The cursor's file is created in the temp directory with a name like 09142562.dbf or .tmp, the name you use in the slect command is only the alais that the file is open under (the name of the work area it is openned in). If you try to use a
C:\ in the cursor name you will get a syntax error.
