>>>>>You could play with INSERT BLANK if your table is small. However, the better way is to SET ORDER to Tag1, and append new record (using INSERT-SQL) with the key fields (part of Tag1 expression) providing necessary location of this record in index sequence. For example, if you have cursor field listorder with record values 1,5,7, you could insert record with listorder=6 and this record will appear between '5' and '7' records.

thanks Ed - I got you this message in my message box. I am more worried
about not getting all my message (answers to my questions) in
my mail box. I do not always read all the threads.
