A particular case?? The cross-tabulation of data is a fairly generic process. I can't imagine a factor that would make a particular case unique. Perhaps the size of data. Then again, this would go back to the core design of the base program that would be useful in all situations.

Sorry Alexander, I can't agree with your conclusion especially since you have offered no benchmarks to support your conclusion. To say that the program that ships with VFP cannot be slower is a conclusion that simply has no basis. I have used VFPXTAB on many occasions. I have also used Excel via automation for these tasks. Of the two, I'll take the VFP solution.
