>>I'm creating cursors of data which I am then putting in an Excel file using COPY TO (also tried EXPORT TO). Looking over the data, I notice that, for example, the cursor has 74,000+ records but the excel file only contains 16,713. Is VFP stopping at this many records because v2 (TYPE XLS) and v5 (TYPE XL5) of Excel had this limit?
