I don't know what you're saying. I just did this in VFP 9 SP 1:
CREATE TABLE junk FREE ( ;
foo C(10), ;
bar C(10) )
FOR x = 1 TO 10
INSERT INTO junk (foo,bar) ;
VALUES ("foo" + TRANSFORM(x), "bar" + TRANSFORM(x))
ENDFOR
SELECT junk.foo, junk.bar DISTINCT FROM junk WHERE "5" $ foo INTO CURSOR mytest
SELECT mytest
BROWSE && One row containing "foo5" and "bar5"
Works fine.
