Hi Mike.

>Pemstatus doesn't work. That's awful!

Actually, I think it makes sense -- an ADO RecordSet is not a VFP object, so I can't see why PEMSTATUS() would work on it. You can use PEMSTATUS() on an ActiveX control in VFP because the control is really hosted in a VFP container. However, that isn't the case with a COM object.
