Hi Sandi.

Sorry for the delay in my reply -- I was at the Southern California VFP Conference.

>Previously I have worked in Fox 2.6 with Stonefield, and when I didn't include a table Stonefield would build it for me.

It will if you ask it to [g]. Somewhere at application startup, call the SDTMgr NeedUpdate() method to determine if any tables need to be created or updated. If it returns .T., call the Update() method to do the necessary work. I'm not sure how or if VFX calls SDT methods at startup, so you may need to dig into the VFX startup code a bit.
