>On two occasions now in two different programs the command 'Insert into mydbf from memvar' has resulted in a new record being added to the BEGINNING of a file rather than the end of the file.

Calvin,

FoxPro never inserts at the beginning of a file. You may see it that way if you have a master index controlling the order of the records.
