>Sounds to me that this isn't a VFP issue, but that the application architecture needs to be examined.

Hi Craig,

I created a wish in the wish list here for that a long time ago Wish#581 I don't agree with you that this an architecture problem. I am using SQL Server only and not DBF at all , so why should i prompt a user to choose a DBF???

I would expect VFP to trow an error in a try-catch block if i attempt to use a inexistant ressource.

try
  *-- In the program here i expect the cursor to be there
  *-- but some other functions may have closed it
  Scan &&&& Open dialog box
    *--- Some code here

  EndScan
catch
...

Why should i have to code if Used() i'm in a try...??
