That was my problem. I was using Doug's example where the CursorAdapter is local and the cursor was gone once the object was released. Once I changed it to public it works.
Thank you for your help.
>>I want to replace use of USE command with CursorAdapter (CA). After creating a CA and calling CursorFill() method I can browse the cursor.
>>
>>But how do you refer to individual fields of the cursor of navigate (move records up and down) the cursor. I assign an alias to the CA (e.g. MYALIAS) but I can't seem to able to refer to the fields using MYALIAS.FLDNAME.. What am I missing?

>>Also, if I want to bind the CA to form controls, how do you do it?

>>TIA for any help or explanations.

>Doug's reply is correct, however be sure to keep the Cursor Adapter reference in scope.
