>Since when does "documented behavior" not mean it is a bug? The behavior of DELETED() in a multi-table query is erratic and should not be used. If it doesn't work the first time it runs, but works the second time, then there is something wrong with the underlying functionality of the command/function. Suffice it to say that I won't be using any alias related functions in multi-table queries, and I will try my damnedest to avoid it in single table queries as well, just to keep out of the habit.

It's not a bug because it's documented that VFP opens tables for a query with whatever alias it wants and in whatever work areas it wants, and you can't rely on the current work area or alias. That's how it works. That's not a bug.
