Let me further explain what is taking place. I have a program (let's
call it rpt1.prg) that runs a SQL SELECT statement to extract data
from a table. Another SQL SELECT captures data to an array.
I have added DIMENSION lacount[1] prior to the the SQL SELECT
that writes the results to the array lacount. I also tried to add
EXTERNAL ARRAY lacount in the rpt1.prg program.

The rpt1.prg program then makes a call to the REPORT FORM
named rpt1.frx. After making these changes and creating the
APP file I still get the following error message:

Report c:\rpt1.frx has the following errors:
Unknown LACOUNT - Undefined.

Do I need to add something to the rpt1.frx REPORT FORM?
If so, how?
