Hi Fred.

>>I am supporting a VFP application on a network and every so often CDX tags get recreated using the PINYIN collation sequence and I need to figure out how this is happening.<<

To find out which collate sequence is currently active, you can use SET("COLLATE"). To determine which collate sequence has been used to create a specific index tag, you can use the IDXCOLLATE() function.
