>>If you don't want to take an advice from a programmer who have used VFP for nearly 20 years, I usually won't help. Anyway, if this is necessary to create an initial table, here are my advices
>>1. Use an index. No argument, just do it!!!!!!!!!!
>>2. When you are done entering the initial data, copy the data to NEW table which you use in production.

>>NB! Relying on the natural order of a table is TERRIBLE design, which will give you big problems if you later must upgrade to for instance SQL server where there is no natural order. Heck, what are indexes for? Once you create an index tag, it will make your table appear to be the order you want, FOREVER! VFP has "automatic gear", why don't you want to use it?
