Been spending time rebuilding a laptop. Have to do it again right now too. :-(

>>>I've go a dilemma in that looking at some old rubbish code (FPD26), tables are continually opened in specified work areas and closed. Now there's a table that I need to ensure I keep open throughout the app. I do:
>>>
>>>Select 0
>>>Use DefDirs
>>>
>>>But 0 returns 1, as this is the first table oppened. Within a heartbeat there is code to:
>>>
>>>Select 1
>>>Use Whatever
>>>
>>>and this happens (1 used) throughout this sorry suite of code.
>>>
>>>So it looks like my only recourse is to open DefDirs in a numbered area that won't get re-used.
>>>
>>>Now AFAIK you can only use 25 work areas in FPD26. I was thinking of opening DefDirs in 25. But I need to check through this labyrynth of progs to check that 25 (or whatever) isn't used somewhere else (for the same lame reason).
