Thanks Brian, I'll see my client today and try your suggestion. Rafael

Create a table with the fields as you want them then use the 8192 flag in XMLTOCURSOR. Like this: CREATE CURSOR RCT_Rec (timex T, uid I) TRY nRecs = XMLToCursor(tcPayload,"RCT_Rec",8192) CATCH TO oErr ENDTRY (BTW it's probably too late for you now, but I'd lok for a programmer who was willing to work on the basis that the source code is yours - there are plenty around).

Is it possible to run a VFP app in them? Thus far, I had to have them programmed in C# by someone else, loosing the corresponding fee income and what is worse, the total control over the program, since the other fellow will not release the source code > -- Cheers ============ Brian Abbott ============ [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com 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.
