Nikki,
One possibility is to use download#
9285You could integrate the form 'Command' in the distributed application - and put it in the menu
Having got that you can use the table and browse it.
Test it first....
Take care... It uses the default data session. As long as you don't have an active form with a private datasession the Command form will be using datasession 1, otherwise it will end up in the active form's datasession which may already have open tables
