other possibility:
if report has anything in its data environment, it will use these file(s) instead of your cursor
>>First as an introduction you may be receiveing many "uninformed" questions from me, what with Budget cuts our group of programmers have been tasked to rewrite all of our MIS in Visual FoxPro from DbaseV, without benefit of any formal training....so here goes the first one:

>Few 'debug' ideas:
>1. Issue Browse command before REPORT FORM just to check that you really grabbed data into cursor. If data is there, then the problem is inside REPORT Form.
>2. If problem is in SELECT..., it might be that CLOSE DATA before SELECT creates problems: SELECT will automatically open table Reforg on default path (may it should go to another one?).
