I think I found the answer to this one, but just making sure.

I need to open some tables/views for a report, and it would probably be just as easy to open them with USE instead of the DE.

Am I understanding the CodeMine manual correct (p. 145 in 6.1 docs) that this is OK to do without calling the AddCursos() function? The manual gives the example of a picklist that would never be modified, and obviousely the report will not be modifying data. However, in the v.7 OnLine help it says "Tables and views that are opened manually via USE commands, however, need to be added to the CDE with the AddCursor() method."

Would appreciate any clarification here.

What brings all this up is that I will have a form that list all available reports (about 100), and I open up different different tables depending on which report is selected.
