Walter,

This is very interesting indeed.

Please explain me if I frist do a 'set procedure to' for each and every procedure file, is it than advisable to also apply sys(2450,1) in case you want to search within the appliction first? And if so, do I have to apply this sys(2450,1) only once, e.g. in mySettings.prg or do you have to apply it again and again before you call a procedure for which you implicitly would like to search within the application first?
