Hi Ed ---

It's an old SPR file which means that all of the controls are actually variants of @..GET and @..SAY....I think that if she opens the tables in the setup snippet and closes them in the post-READ snippet (dang - can't remember the name) of the main SPR and removes all open/close table commands from the child SPR files everything should be OK. I think. Boggles the mind, eh?
