Paul --- Is there an active index and is it based on those fields? If so, you could be dynamically changing the order of the SCAN, causing unexpected results.


>I have a cursor called cpayment with 3 records. The cpay_flag is .t. and cpay_schdate has a date in all 3 records. When I run the following code it only loops through one record, not all 3. If I comment out the replace cpay_schdate with {} and replace cpay_flag with .f. the SCAN will loop through all records. Now I know whats causing the problem but I don't understand why.
