>Thanks. I am attempting to use the genview program. I am either getting a parameter error or a message box telling me that it isn't a cursor. The readme file explained more on what the program was for than explaining how to use it (which is probably a no brainer to some). Could you clarify how to utilize this tool?

VFP9 and still using Views when CA is here? :-)
Just kidding.
try this in command window:

CLOSE ALL
CLEAR ALL
OPEN YourDatabase EXCLUSIVE
MODIFY VIEW TheNameOfTheView

Then click on SQL button in the toolbar.

BTW using Views was/is very helpful when you need to get just a portion of the records.
