OK... .That sort of explains what is happening.  For some unknown reason windows is causing dbase to shut down (not just the script I am working on).  From what I can tell  it seems that this is after 1 or 2 or 3 requeries.  I am using dbase 11.  Could this be a known bug in dbase?  I only ran into this because I was testing the form several times.  I might not have noticed it had I not been testing.  But on my other script that is unrelated to this project, that does happen in regular use.

I'm thinking this could be a bug with dbase or possibly dbase.
