Hello!

i'm opening a table that is created in clipper with an index that includes the DESCEND() function. this is not allowed in vfp, as i understand it you have to set up the index DESCENDING.

so, when i open a table with 5 different indexes using this function, i get the error "Function argument value, type, or count is invalid" 5 times! the table eventually opens fine though.

my question is how to avoid these messages, even if i can't actually use the indexes without rebuilding them in vfp? i've tried setting on error to do nothing but the message still appears.

many thanks for any help!
