>My company purchased a VFP 5 software package. I have been tasked with trying to figure out why it runs so slowly. When I built the application it generated about 40 undefined errors due to array references//parameters. I know these errors don't hurt the execution but I like things clean. I decided to get rid of them by adding EXTERNAL ARRAY declarations where needed. I did this to the PRG and SCX files and got the number of errors down to 7.

>Now I'm trying to get rid of these errors in reports where the field control sources are array elements (don't know why they didn't just create a cursor). Where can I put the EXTERNAL ARRAY declaration in reports to get rid of the errors. I tried putting it in the On Entry expression for the report band, but that didn't do it.

You can declare the array in the calling module or form. That will make it visible throughout the report.
