Yes, it could be it. I have this USE and then LOCATE command right after. I thought that the window/prompt I see was generated by the USE command. But it could be that it was generated by the LOCATE command. Thank you!

But now I am wondering. I already changed my code to use CREATE CURSOR and then APPEND FROM ("MyTable"). Is this better than USE directly?


>Just a wild guess... Could it be that you forgot to Select the work area after the Use command? "IN 0" doesn't select the work area, the work area will remain what it already was.

>>Thank you. Something is not working in my app. When I create a cursor and then APPEND from the DBF included in the .EXE, everything works. The cursor is filled with the data from the DBF. But when I try to USE, it does not work. I have to go with the APPEND then.
