You cannot combine creating array and appending records into one commnand.

CREATE CURSOR pnHold (propno i(4))
DIMENSION ahold(ALEN(ahold,1))  && required so each item goes into separate record
APPEND FROM ARRAY ahold

>I don't understand. Is there more spec I need besides i(4). I tried not null, it did not work. The array is dynamic and has hardly ever has more than 10 records. The array is one column of 6 digit numbers.
