>>It can't. When you use a DLL, it runs a separate copy of VFP (even an in-process DLL). As such, variables, tables and cursors are not available to it. You need to reopen the tables and pass the necessary information to the DLL to position the record where you need it.

You can do that in a number of ways. You could pass it an object parameter that held all the information you wanted to track. You could also dumo the information to file and the DLL read the file and parse it that way.
