The following gets you 'in the area' of your desires.
use getfile('dbf',"","",0,'Use')
This gives you close to what you get with Use ? and then hitting the Other... button. Still doesn't start you out with details. But I can mouse to your exact specs faster than I can type the above. You could put it under a key I suppose or write a little UDF........DO myuse
I suspect there's an API or WSH function with a little more flexibility than getfile() and could be used in its place.
