Hi Ken

The problem with this request is that there is no built in way to have the current record # during the index and pack commands.

I don't really want to mention the only solution I've seen because I think it was a terrible thing to do.

INDEX ON tag sometag for someudf(). Then use low level file operations to remove the reference to " for someudf()" from the cdx file! Yuck!

Someudf obviously returned .T. so there really wasn't any filtering. If you take that approach, I don't even want to hear about it. I think it dangerous to be hacking the CDX like this.

>i have a LARGE table that i pack and then index on about 4 different Tags... - i would like to have a thermometer on the form that is in the foreground while the table is worked on... which is fine - but i would also like a thermomator running on the form showing progress... any ideas? i have played with the one that comes with Fox7 but have not had any luck yet - how do i get it to work while a table is being packed and indexed? an example if anyone has one would be great!!! :-)))
