Not the same I think. The former forces the table to close first (thereby 
flushing anything not hard written yet) and then reopens it, whereas the latter 
skips the close if open step.

Subject: Confusing code

Here's the code:
  USE (THIS.cPath+"QuitApp.dbf") IN (SELECT("QuitApp")) SHARED
  SELECT (SELECT("QuitApp"))

Is this basically saying "use the table if it's not already being used;
otherwise, use it in a new area....and then select the area where it is.

Seems to me like it could have been written easier with a simple

IF NOT USED("QuitApp") THEN
  USE this.cPath + "QuitApp" in 0
ENDIF
SELECT QuitApp


???

tia!
