>Nadya first you cant prevent if the cdx file doesn't exist what you can do is trap the error and do something e.g. go to the next loop or cancel the whole loop that is up to you.

I think, I have to change my code and open these tables explicitly. I also need custom error handler for this specific problem. That's very inconvenient, because I already have Error Handler for this application, which is upper level. So, how can I trap for specific error 1707 in this program directly, but use my other application specific Error Handler, if it's not 1707 error?

Thanks in advance.
