The code below works for me just fine, except I set lcfile to a file that actually resides on my system. Also, I didn't make any modifications to the downloaded programs *smile*

Have you tried this from within VFP? You don't get any errors? And it doesn't work for any file on your system? hmmm...

I don't remember if you provided this information already: What version of VFP are you using (w/service pack)? What OS are you on?

It looks like George has headed home, but he often times pokes his head in here in the evening. Hopefully he can shed some light on the issue.
