>Thanks for the update, don't forget to add it to the FAQ, it makes the array solution workable again (at least for me).
Yes, I will update it immediately. I am curious to know which method you decide to use in the end, and why. The alternative I proposed originally in the FAQ (now labelled "Option 1") has the advantage (I believe) of simplicity, and the disadvantage (as Sergey pointed out) of being undocumented. This means, it
might no longer work in future releases of VFP.
