>I don't think, you need CLOSE TABLES in the Destroy event. Comment it out, the tables would be automatically closed, if you use private DS and don't change default settings in DE. You may need close database line, but this should probably be done in the calling program after do form statement...

Hi Nadya:

I have not set a dataenvironment specifically. All I do is use select statments which are botained from my free tables., so there is not 'database' as such. So I am not sure where I could have potentially changed any default settings. DataSession is = 1 (default setting).

Thanks Nadya.
