>>I couldn't wait. TYPE FOX2X helped a lot but it didn't bring me back far enough. Is there a TYPE DBASE? I couldn't find anything on "TYPE" in the COPY FILE help screen.

I was about to do a little low level stuff (I've played with this before in my old Clipper days) when Bob Buske cleared up the COPY FILE ... TO vs COPY TO confusion. I tried his method with TYPE FOXPLUS and it worked fine. Thanks for pointing me to Table File Structure in help, it's full of interesting information.

Thanks Bob for making me look like a hero to my customer.
