I was assuming that Michel did not need the other settings that are set in this memo. I do this at compile time, just before I build the app, I go into all my reports, erase the expr field and reset some settings as you said. It sounds more scary than it actually is... and it is M$ approved (for what it is worth), because they advise so in the knowledgbe base. Regards, Marc
