Josh and Eric,
Thanks,

>>I want to copy certain records to a file so that the file is a member of the same database, so VFP3.0 won't truncate the names of the fields in the file. I read somewhere that this can be done using a command similar to: "copy to in ,database name>. Does anyone know what the command is?
