>Apart from checking the contents of the super table (which are presumably OK if you say it runs fine in IDE), I'd check what settings may be different between your exe and IDE - set("memowidth") and what else may be related to mline() and memlines(). Check sys(2019) to see which config.fpw is in effect in each case.

I think I could run the program by running vfp from explorer and the program within vfp if you see what i mean - but I cant remember precisely how to do this
