Thank's.
That's very interesting. I didn't know we were able to
open .frx files (as well as dbf, scx, mnx..) as a table.
So far I was only accesing the design view of the report.

Now that this secret is revealed to me, do you know
if there is any documentation about the fields contained in
those tables.
For example, I'm very curious to see what is the meaning of the
value found in the "ObjType" column (also Tag and Tag2).

Claude.
