>#4 A cursor structure can not be altered (The command is ALTER TABLE)


Oh, yes, it can - as long as the length of the fieldname is max 10 chars - beyond 10 chars you will get an error

> If you need to alter a structure, you would need SELECT .. INTO Table and later ALTER TABLE

Not necessarily

	create cursor tmp ;
	(	Id	I, ;
		Name c(20);
	)
	insert into tmp values (1, '1')
	insert into tmp values (1, '1')
	
	alter table tmp ;
		alter Name c(10) ;
		add FirstName c(15);
