Remove the semi-colons from your TEXT...ENDTEXT code.

>In the following code, the sql statement keeps getting chopped before the end. I have tried everything I can think of, iincluding stringing it all together and removing the aliases. It sill is to long. Can anybody offer any suggestions on getting this sql statement into the cursor adapter so that it will fill the cursor.
