>could you define pricate datasessions?

The default for reports is not private datasession (get to this option in the report designer, under report in the menu). Private datasession mean that the report will only see data in its own dataenvironment, not data in the calling form or prg.


>and when you create a field in a report that is to display a value from a field in the cursor, how do you define the field. IOW - I create a field in the report and put "what" in the expression?

Say my cursor is defined like this:

SELECT Field1, Field2 FROM MyTable WHERE SomeCondition = .T. INTO CURSOR MyCursor

YOu could then use field expressions in your report like this:

MyCursor.Field1
