Hi Mel:

>I had used the above line already, but how to you actually open the free table (it's in a special folder), set it's index, etc.?
>I assume I would not do these through just native VFP commands... am I correct?

You assumed wrong <s>. Just :-

USE c:\whateverfolder\freetable ALIAS MyFree ORDER SomeOrder
m.oMyFree = Thisform.oCDE.AddCursor('FreeTab')

If you want to get this cursor involved in relationships managed by the DM/CDE, you can then use cmCursor methods like AddChild(). If you need any more help, just ask away.

>Thanks again. Hope all is going well with you.

Things are not too bad!
