Bruce,
This sounds crazy, but if we can find a way of 'forcing' the physical creation (perhaps increasing the size large enough), do you think we can get it across to the other Private DS?

>>However, under the documentation, the NOFILTER clauyse is supposed to force the physical creation on disk. As Dragan said, we dont' actually have the physical table at all in this case. Well, to be really on the safe side ... "at any time the only reliabel way to access a cursor is via its alias" ... WOn't know what happens when I port the VFP5 code to 6 with the USE DBF() AGAIN scattered all over the place.
