Thought you all would find this amusing.
After deciding that no harm could come from using select table1.*, table2.field1, table2.field2... and running the prg, the screen crashed. It seems that a field selected from table2 has the same name as one in table1. Back to listing all field names.
Thanks again to all of you.
