Yeah, I would, but I don't want to go back to every possible select statement and pre-verify all possible tables being opened. Especially when many of the queries are all generated on the fly, and the aliases Source can constantly change... Yes, I could apply the IF USED( lcNewSource ), but again, don't want to go back to every class/form to qualify other developers code.
