>In have an app in vfp60 that works on the network. I need to refresh data from time to time so the user can see uptodate information. What is the call to REFRESH DATA?

Do you use Views or the tables directly? Is the data shown in a grid? Textbox controls? If its a table, all you need to do is a thisfomr.refresh() and the controls will show the latest and greatest data. The data is actually always current, you just need to update the controls.
