Kengwen,
It tells VFP to locate a table work area which is not being used by a table. This way when you open a table it will not close a table that is already open. In the help it states that the lowest-numbered available work space is opened.

For example if you have tables open in work areas 1 and 3 then SELECT 0 will take you to work area 2 which has no table open.

You can accomplish the same thing with

USE MyNewTable in 0
