Anywhere that you have a macro substituted command will not be compiled (Because the command isn't there until it runs!) If you have a SQL-Select in only one place in the program, and it has a macro substitution in it, the code for performing SQL's will not be included in the .EXE!

Sorry, do you really think that any Select-SQL using macro substitution requires this dummy idea. It's kind of 'revolution' in Foxpro programming.
