>I've written a few little prgs like this, and in some cases the purpose was to see the dataenvironment while editing a report. The trick was to set the datasession before the GETEXPR command, and to restore it afterwards, so the expression builder would see all the tables. I used to store it in a custom property of _screen, as soon as I had all the cursors ready, Set Datasession to _screen.nds, GETEXPR, Set Datasession to nSaveDS. Worked perfectly.


Dragan,

Be-careful with switching datasessions from within a form, for grids, for example, will lost its configuration when they lose their controlsource, so you might not be able to call your program from within a form with grids, or you might need some pre-code (cleanning all the controlsources of grids) and post-code or (putting them back)

I do not know the context where you run the program, just sharing something I learnt the hard way :)
