Hi Venelina,

I cannot agree.

This is probably what they have thought those of the VFPT.

But this argument is inconsistent.

Example:
SelectCmd = [ SELECT * FROM... ]
Now:
 time(1):  the CursorFill created the Cursor 
 time(2):  a ALTER TABLE change one or many fieldnames 
 time(3):  CursorRefresh send the [ SELECT * FROM ...] and the datasource 
            return a different "fieldnames list" Metadata.
Can VFPT control this ? No.

The VFPT must stop to think next to situations
where the instruments that create go well or they do not go well;
it must only make the instruments and enough.

Otherwise, every developer that it wants to make something that the VFPT has not thought,
is forced to leave again from zero.

They are I that I must use them well or badly.

No as simple:
WHERE (1=?CAST(IIF(ThisForm.Checkbox.Value,1,0) AS I) AND tagField IS NULL) ....
If you have 20 checkbox ....
