Hi Serget.. thanks for your reply.

I thought that mabe the syntax : Goto Cur.MyRecnum might be casuing the problem.
What it seems to be doing is getting the last record on the cursor instead of the first
Maybe if I put in into a variable first ??as in X=Cur,MyRecnum and then Goto X

Regards,
Gerard
