Michael, An RFF is an External Form. It is a way to use a form for a menu without being CONNECTed to a database.
>From the the database explorer it is the third selection from the bottom. When you select that you will see all RFF's in the current folder. Then you can design the form. Or from the the R> you can type REFF nameoffile.rff. That stands for Run External Form File. Jan Johansen Authorized R:BASE Developer -----Original Message----- From: "Michael J.
