Hi Jeff,

I suggest you leave enginebehavior at 80 and rewrite your select statements where you must. If you depend on the value being 70, then your select statements are not in compliance with the ANSI standard. To use other words, select statements which work with 70 but not with 80 should not have run in the first place, but the do so anyway because VFP7 did not follow the ANSI standard. In VFP8 they decided to follow the standard, but gave us enginebehavior as a 'fix', a fix which may not be there in newer versions.
