>>>How does one set a relationship in the data environment of a form? I know it can be done, but I'm curious if it's possible without a DBC. I have a client who needs to use the files in DOS mode as well as VFP 3.0, so I can't use a DBC. MS suggests, for the sake of performance, to use the Data Environment for relationships. Has anyone out there set a relationship at the form level w/out a DBC?

relation isn't part of a table/cursor. it's a tie between two tables/cursors. you'll need to add these yourself by dragging desired field to matching field in another table. this will set the relation.
