Hi Scott,

>So, I'm assuming that if you use the NOFILTER clause you will no longer have a fully optimized query, but you will have a cursor that you can then select from. Am I thinking right on this one?

Yes, although the query is still fully optimizable. It's a little bit slower, because the records are written into a file. It's not as slow as this sounds since VFP probably hold the file still into memory.
