Hi Alan,

continue on this way, VFP SELECT parser is optimize for,initial false, expression with only variable/properties.

Example:
x=3
SELECT * FROM someTable WHERE m.x=2 INTO CURSOR resCursor READWRITE

execute only build resCursor phase, none someTable records is scanned.

**

Very useful for build multi joins result structure.

It is equivalent at NODATA clause on USE command.

I think NODATA add 'AND .F.' to the WHERE condition of the SQLSELECTStatement.
