Hi Mauricio

What Barbara mentioned about the 254 characters is true. If your queries are long you are going to run into trouble unless you string together several macro's.

If your queries are going to be this long, another solution for you to consider is to use the strtofile() and filetostr() functions. Here you can just keep adding the properly formatted text that makes up the query to one file. When you are ready to execute use the filetostr() function, and then delete the file.
