Hi Mitch,

It sounds like you have a number of architectural issues beyond a move of the READ EVENTS code that go a lot deeper than a simple response will address. I would recommend Jim Booth's book, Effective Techniques, available at Hentzenwerke. This book will give you a good foundation in VFP application architecture and technique.

>Thanks very much for responding. You're right; my approach is from the days of foundation reads. I changed to include only the first read events but am still having problems.
