Hi Tore,

>yes, but it your case, why? INDEX ON FirstName-LastName gives EXACTLY the same result! One of the little used features of xBase.

Though I am aware of the possibility to use the - to concatenate strings, I never use it mainly because I rarely need it, and frankly I don't think there is a wide application for it.

Walter,
