>Tai, You're going to have problems whenever you use recno() in a SQL, particularly if you are pulling data from more than one table. The SQL code is not consistent on what record # it uses. You should be using a unique field or combination of fields to get your data.

Thx. I see your point. It was working fine when I select from one table if I am not on buffer mode.

Is there any other way to get flag in the buffer? Also, is there a way to issue the command directly instead of going through a macro substitution?
