Jeff,

Be carefull! VFP may simply use the dbf again and set a fitler to provide your cursor. If it does this and you USE DBF("CursorName") AGAIN you will be appending into the actual source table and not some temp table that will be destroyed. Be sure you use the NOFILTER option on the SELECT command to force VFP to create a disk file for the cursor.
