Rob,

I'm assuming that you mean that no data has been inserted into the record. In some cases you can use the ISBLANK() function to determine this. Unfortunately, with the currency data type, this doesn't apply. For example,

CREATE CURSOR Foo (Money Y, SomeNum N(8, 2))
* No records
? ISBLANK(Foo.Money) && returns .F.
? ISBLANK(Foo.SomeNum) && returns .T.
* Add a record
APPEND BLANK
? ISBLANK(Foo.Money) && returns .F.
? ISBLANK(Foo.SomeNum) && returns .T.

In both cases, the EMPTY() function returns .T.
