Hi Sergey,

I get an error just when trying to create the parameterized version of the view - "No result set has been returned by the server." is the exact message. With the table name hard coded it works fine. My create view statement is identical to yours except the view and Connection names.

I have VFP7 with SP1.

Thanks.
