You got that right. Note that it was possible, at least back in VFP7, that it fails because the actual file returned by dbf(lcMyAlias) didn't physically exist, as the cursor was small or based on a filter and completely resided on memory and was never written to disk. This was fixed in later versions, so append worked even without the physical file. See the other answer about NOFILTER clause, that should fix it.
