Thanks Buddy!

It looks like that did the trick.  I feel a lot better about my code now.

 I was having a problem with browsing a Sattached table, using Oterro
3.1. After sending all the info to RBTI it turned out that I needed to
tell oterro where to write temporary files by modifing the oterro.cfg. 

SCRATCH   C:\TEMP  

 I think Razzak stated in one of his Tips of the day you can also use 

SCRATCH  TMP

I just don't get it.

I have a process that loops through a table that is sattached using
Oterro 3.1.  That process works fine, most of the time.  To troubleshoot
the problems that we're having, I am trying to do a couple simple counts
on records in that same table.  Every time I do a count (essentially of
the records in the loop) the count is 0.  If I browse the table, I don't
see all of the records.  It's missing about 10,000 records.  That's a
problem.

Yet, most times, the looping process runs reliably against that same
table.

Oh, the loop isn't my code, but I am using the same Sattached table
within that same program.

Essentially,

select count(*) from DB_SAttached where MerID = .vMerid and ECKProcDate
= .#date

Where DB_SAttached is the table that the cursor is using in the loop.

Any ideas?  Is there some sort of Oterro Ritual I must do to cleanse my
code?

I just don't get it.  I just want to know how many records processed.
Is that so wrong?  ;-)
