>I have used the command CREATE DBF to setup a new free table. When I try to use it with the USE command, I get the error "File is in use". How do I close the dbf file created with the CREATE DBF command? I have other free tables open and I don't want them closed so I can't use the CLOSE TABLES command.

USE IN SELECT("TableAlias")

will close table with alias TableAlias and do nothing if such alias doesn't exists. If you know that alias exists than

USE IN TableAlias
