Thanks Mike
Good suggestion. Now that you mention it, I knew that tip.
Thanks for the rattle, it works for losts of other coding!

>There was a recent tip in FoxPro Advisor magazine that says Rushmore Optimization does not work with object properties. You could do as Fabio suggested and copy the entire array property to a regular array or you could do this:

>>Would anyone have an idea to why this code runs so slow. I think I may not be removing records from a view correctly. I couldn't get the view to update unless I deleted the record directly from the table. It takes 7sec on 33000 records, 5sec on 10000 records.
