> > My guess about the 65,000 limit has something to do with the interactibility with Excel. It has a row limit of 65,000+ records when copying to a xls in VFP 8.0. Not sure about limits in other versions, except 5.0, which only copies to xl5 format with a limit of 16,383 records. VFP 8.0 actually copies the table out to a later Excel format which will accept the 65,000+ record structure.

Tek-Tips is the first forum I ever joined. So it just feels comfortable there.
Again, thanks.
