Well. That's just fine then. I'm afraid the datacops have to come over to your house and take all your toys away! :-)

(Sorry for picking, I'm sure this isn't funny to you!)

Hey, I'm not sure what's going on then. My current guess is that you are using the tables with the again clause and you don't have the alias' that you think you have any more. The first form opens the tables with one set of alias' and then the second form opens them with another set. But that seems really wierd.

How do you open the tables? Did you write a program in the DE to do that, or didja just pick them? If you wrote a program, there is a chance that its stepping on you.

Have you used the debugger much? Try putting an expression like used("mytable") or select("myalias") in the watch window with a break on it, and see if that gives you any ideas about what's going on.

Good luck man. Wish I had been able to be more help! (And if all else fails, then you might need to post a little of your code here to see if we can figure it out from that!)
