Gregory,

have seen all those CDX() - DBF() problems.
try

USE ..
INDEX ... TAG T1
REQUERY([...])
INDEX ... TAG T1
?dbf()
?cdx(1)
?cdx(2)

Or use debugger - its easyer to read. <s>


Let's say I run into erratic problems

I do testing on command window no matter if in VFP7.0 SP1 or VFP6.0 SP5.

Doing code like you suggest to

*Code 1
USE ..
INDEX ... TAG T1
do this do that
REQUERY([...])
DELETE TAG ALL
INDEX ... TAG T1
INDEX ... TAG T2
BEGIN TRANSACTION

may run if. May not. I change a little bit

*Code 2
USE ..
INDEX ... TAG T1
INDEX ... TAG T2
do this do that
REQUERY([...])
DELETE TAG ALL
INDEX ... TAG T1
INDEX ... TAG T2
INDEX ... TAG T3
BEGIN TRANSACTION

it fails.
If I immediate repeate

CLEAR ALL
*Code2
...

SUCCESS!

Now I clean up each and everything (QUIT?)

*Code2
...

success

Now I start playing in number of tags.

Sometimes it fails, but I can never repeat error.

Except one: Allways in SortIt <~@#€#!>

I can't close my view's ...

It's like running in circles.

Could be some cache?
