YES you knew it Jean !

(even if you can't remind it)

In a previous thread within our french newsgroup,

there was a question about filtering a bottom of top of bottom

lot of records, to get the number 'n' within a scalable data lot,

and i told you about imbricating SELECTs FROM clause

three times deep to reach out the result !

Tha't the same way i did it ; when you choose your prime

subset, at first file level asking, you can then bind a recno()

to a field, so it will fit correctly while upsourced to the prior

request. A way to get rid of recno()'s sql ghosts ...

After, it is more than the way it takes to raise the sauce ...

:o)))

Gérard.
