The value of SET HOURS is, if it is not modified, typically stored in your PLUS.INI file. In the Command Window:      ? _app.iniFile That's where the PLUS.INI file is that is used by dBASE (or your application, although in a .exe file you would need to use something like: msgbox( "Ini File: " + _app.iniFile ) ) Typically it will be something like:     C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\dBASE\dBASE2019\Bin\PLUS.INI Where "user_name" is the windows Login name for the user.
