>I knew I could count on the UT and most likely you lately. I assume you write code with VFP for a living because you seem to have all the answers. How does that saying go, "You've probably forgotten more than I will ever know". Thanks again Sergey!!
BTW, if you want to know if an existing variable is an array
IF TYPE("myvariable[1]") = "U"
ELSE
ENDIF
