If I do it in vfp 9.0, it's been causing corruption. If I use a SQL select, the largest subset a user would use is about 26,000 records from 3 different tables, that takes about 30 seconds. . I was thinking of opening the database again with the noupdate clause, but will that guarantee me no corruption? Can you corrupt an index with a file opened noupdate? --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
