Well, I regularly use it to delete children, when the parent is deleted, with business documents (invoices (facturas) against invoice details, and similar). This saves a lot of time.
The programs generated by Visual FoxPro RI should handle your recursive case, too, but I didn't try this (you may have trouble if there are too many levels - do some tests).
TaxRI generates more efficient (and 10 times smaller) code than VFP - see Download #
