May I ask WHY you have chosen to use a table exclusive? Zapping on a regular basis sounds like a bad choice, why don't you use a cursor instead? In "my book", zap is a command that should only be used maximum once or twice per year, in a specially designed table maintenance module. If ever..., I haven't used zap since the last millennium, actually I can't remember ever having used it. It's on my "commands to avoid" list, which also includes Insert. Unless by Insert you mean the SQL version, Insert in VFP comes in two completely different flavors.

In my applications, the only table that is ever opened exclusive, is the table that keeps track of the last used invoice number and other numbers that has to be sequential. This table only has one record, and is never open more than a few milliseconds, before it's closed again.

Maybe if you provide more information, I can give you some more assistance.
