Whoa- wait a minute here guys. The above will surely replace one form's dataenvironment object with another form's, but it won't do anything for the cursor objects.

SCX files work like this: Each record represents an object. Each record (except for the form itself) also references a parent object with its Parent property. Since DEs are their own object, and each cursor is its own object, to completely copy a form's DE from one scx to another, you would not only need to copy the DE object, but also each contained cursor.

I don't know this for sure because I haven't tested it, but I would guess that VFP might get a little freaked out if the DE object wasn't the second record in the scx (it always is when VFP writes the scx). Also be careful that the form object is the first object after the last cursor in the DE.
