Chuck --

I wonder if you're trying to combine 2 operation into one.

CREATE CURSOR pnHold FROM ARRAY ahold

uses the array to provide the field definitions of the columns (not to populate it with data).

If your data is located in the array, you can accomplish what you want as follows:

CREATE CURSOR pnHold (propno i(4))
SELECT pnHold
APPEND FROM ARRAY aHold
