Hi All!

I was wondering something... If I select a work area and open a table, the table is opened in that work area (duh)...

SELECT 3
USE TABLENAME.DBF
? SELECT("tablename")

returns a 3

But if I do the following with a cursor ....

SELECT 3
CREATE CURSOR crs_at3 (fname c(1))
? SELECT("crs_at3")

...it opens it in work area 1.(i.e. the next available work area).

I KNOW that the above is not good coding but this is a legacy app and I can't go back and change it. Is there a way to FORCE a cursor to open in a particular work area??

Thanks for any ideas!!!
