Yeah, I know that's better, but it's not always easy to know what alias to look for. I'm looking at modifying a generic open file routine that's giving me trouble and I'm thinking it might be easiest to just add "AGAIN" if I can figure out where in the mess of code it's actually opening the file. Since it's a generic routine, though, I didn't want to cause a mess of problems by using it where it's not necessary.

Thanks,

Michelle


>AFAIK it's ok to use the AGAIN clause. I would personally use something like this:

>llUsedCustomer=Used('customer')
>If Not llUsedCustomer
>    Use Customer In 0
>Endif
>... program code
>If Not llUsedCustomer And Used('customer')
>    Use In Customer
>Endif
