Catherine,
One more comment - USE IN Alias will throw an error if Alias is not open. A really safe way to close tables is
Use In Select("Alias")
What this does is selects an empty work area if there is no table/cursor named Alias open at the time, which won't throw an error, and if Alias is open then it will be closed.
Of course, you "know" your table is open but good programming practice suggests that we should never assume anything and we should program to avoid errors or handle them gracefully.
