Well, *months* ago I thought sql was too difficult and foreign for me
to deal with after years of the usual dBASE commands. Now I'm sold on
sql for everything I can make it do (even when it can't <g>).

Say, while I've got you on the line, any comment on why the copy()
method of update set does not produce a 'complete' table (it produces
the .dbf and .dbt, but not the .mdx)?
