Richard,

Thanks for the insights on the Cursors - as some of my assumptions about
them were wrong. 

In addition - for our system - there is this "Work" sub-directory where
temp files are created, and code in the system that generates the temp
file names. I only bring this up - because you suggested storing the
temp files on the local C: drive - while this work directory is up on
the Server - under the main directory where the application resides. 

So - shall I still go for doing a Temp DBF, along with a Temp IDX file -
even though its on the Server? Or - will a Cursor ACTUALLY get generated
as a True local temp file - because of the way VFP works?

-K-

Basically your temp cursor is a temp dbf.  The system writes the data to
system generated dbf that is auto deleted once your release the cursor.
I would write the code to use a temp dbf on the local PC, and do cleanup
when done.
