>Is there any way to create a temporary cursor, as one would with SQL Select when 'selecting' data, but an empty file with a defined structure, like you would do with regular vfp commands? As in use a file, and Copy Structure To, but to a temp cursor. I know I can copy to a temp table, and delete that, but I don't want to do that if I can help it.

Another word of caution;
(on CraigB post)

Option 2 with select statement gave me nasty bug while ago, (There was a long thread here on that)
whereas options 1 and 3 never failed me. However, beware of long field names with option 3, they will be truncated to 10 chars.

Just caution :-)
