This message has been marked as the solution to the initial question of the thread.
A cursor may not have physical presence on a disk in which case DBF() reports none-existent file name.. A query can use a cursor name directly
	Select *, Space(5) As Lineno ;
From sbt_artran ;
Where Item != "300 " And Item != "DEL" And Item != "310" ;
		AND Item != "312" Order By 1,3 Into Cursor Tran Readwrite
>This one is quite enfuriating and any alternatives would be greatly appreciated! I am trying to run a query from a query result and all has been running fine until lately when I get a "file not found" error. Recently we added a hard drive to the machine and moved the foxtemp directory there. The dbf('sbt_artran') command shows the file should be in the e:\foxtemp directory, but I find no file there, even after a flush. Ironically, when I step through the code on the machine, it works just fine. The relevant code is below:
>**arytrn01 and artran01 are both fox tables listed in a dbc as a local view.
>the _tally is around 200,000 records.
