I don't use quotes when specifying an alias

If the table could not be opened, then table.code would not be accessible!
So my suggestions:
1. "select 0" is better than "select 909"!
2. Use used() to check whether the table was opened
3. Because you are trying to open a table EXCL, you should set ON ERROR!
Better, use TRY... CATCH if you are using VFP 9.
LOCAL m.errhand
m.errhand=ON("ERROR")
ON ERROR *
SELECT 0
USE (lTable) EXCLUSIVE ALIAS junk1
ON ERROR &errhand
IF USED()
*
* do your stuff
*
REPLACE junk1.code WITH .....
USE
ENDIF
