James, Could you have a function somewhere called "errormsg" which is conflicting with the CREATE CURSOR command? You might try removing the fields one at a time and see if a field name is causing problems. I'd suggest leaving PartNo for last, as it's been used in so many programs around the world that it probably has its own fan club.
