John,

>Many thanks for turning the light on for me on this. Your inputs have been a big help in understanding VFP... Now, IF I got paid to program I'd be in high cotton and barking at the moon...

Sounds like you need to talk to your boss about a huge raise *g*

>Do you do your ON ERROR ... in your Main.prg ?

Yup, but about the only time main.prg ever runs is when the exe is running in production.
