Hi!

I just want to help you and explain the possible cause of the problem and if it could be workarounded at all. If you do not like how I answered, just tell nothing, please. There are a lot of limitations and bugs in the VFP that exists even from VFP3.0 and VFP 5.0 and are not fixed in VFP7.0. Just because they're too little compare to resources required to fix these bugs and break these limitations. Just a simple question: when you develop program, you develop it by efficient way, when approach you use cost less that benefit you gain from the program, right? Think about VFP and its limitations by the same way - imagine yourself on the place of the developer of VFP abd you will understand.

>>OOPS, just not use set filter to. I guess VFP works the same way, but all these SET FILTEr's are used in background for each report when FOR is included in REPORT command. Because report is not waiting, filter got lost as soon as next command executed after REPORT FORM ... NOWAIT command, that temporary filter is dropped to make further executing of code consistent.
