Hi Steve

Thanks ever so much for the advice.  I did as you said but it makes not
a blind bit of difference unfortunately.  It still crashed on the:
...
Create Ranges    
  From csrThematicMap 
  With lcColAlias
  Use "Equal Ranges" 
  Number 10 
  Into Variable aRangeLimits 
...
With:

Dim     lcMessage, lcAPFilePath, lcField, lcTabFile, lcDBFFile,
lcFileName, 
        lcColName, lcColCapt, lcSQLStr  As String,
        lcColAlias                                      As Alias,

However, I got it to work thanks to your "Run Command" reminding me.
The col caption, for example, may be "UNDER TWENTY-FIVES" (in an age
group domain), to go with the field "Under25" say.  So the space in the
caption, I assume, was cocking it up.  So I coded (not using the alias
field) with quotes around the col alias (ensuring a pukka alias string):

lcSQLStr        = "Select Zone, " + lcColName + " " + Chr$(34) +
lcColCapt + Chr$(34) + 
                  " from " + lcFileName + " into csrTemp NoSelect"
Run Command lcSQLStr

which worked.  Got past this then the Shade statement failed.  

So I substituted lcFieldCapt for lcFieldAlias in the shade statement and
voila!  Thematic map of user-selected column name from a user-selected
table name! :-)

Thanks again for the trouble you took.  Again, it's the looking over the
shoulder that helps just as much as the advice received, eh?

My very best wishes

Terry
