Tim,
Actually I don't have a clear idea.
Instead of :
use tmpqry again in 0 alias merchsheet

use dbf('tmpqry') again in 0 alias merchsheet

might help. Second (I don't know Citrix so don't know what would it make a difference) 'create table' and 'create cursor' doesn't have a difference except automatic cleanup of cursor files. Both at the end write to disk.
