LOCAL lii
LOCAL ARRAY laFiles(1)
FOR lii=1 TO AUSED(laFiles)
    ?laFiles(lii,1),laFiles(lii,2),DBF(laFiles(lii,1))
NEXT

But it's only for running instance VFP.

>I'm finally writing a class to handle file open with all of the error checking etc. One of the things I need to ck is to see if the file is already open. The used() function will ck if the proposed alias is in use or if the current workarea has an open file in it, but what if the file is open with a different alias that I don't know and it's not in the current workarea?
