I think this may be a bug in VFP 7, but I was wondering if anyone else has run into it?

Try this in VFP 7:

(From the command window)
CREATE CURSOR binky (field1 C(10))
ALTER TABLE binky ADD COLUMN field2 C(15)
(should work fine)

Now try this:
DIMENSION laStru[1]
USE anytable
=AFIELDS(laStru)
CREATE CURSOR newCursor FROM ARRAY laStru
ALTER TABLE newCursor ADD COLUMN NewField C(8)
(boom!)
This last statement generates the error "Invalid operation for the cursor". It worked fine in VFP 6.

TIA for any help.
