I have tried to save both the hold files a couple of ways - once as an ALPHA file with MFD, and once as a FOCUS database. Either way, here is the code:
TABLE FILE ONE field1 filed2 by field3 on table hold as thold0 end -* TABLE FILE TWO fielda fieldb by fieldc on table hold as thold1 end
That's all the code I can enter. When I select the MATCH option in Developer studio, that's when I get the parsing error:
"Error Parsing Master File THOLD0 (0).
That's the only error I get.

Thanks Ginny for help.
Tom, can you please try the following, doing the match in the same focexec:
TABLE FILE ONE
field1
filed2
by field3
on table hold as thold0
end
-*
TABLE FILE TWO
fielda
fieldb
by fieldc
on table hold as thold1
end
Match file …..
Cheers,
Kerry

Hi, Kerry.
I am already doing that. I have the MATCH in the same focexec as the 2 extract file creation. Any other ideas?

Was there a fix or workaround to this issue? I ran into the same problem. I worked around the issue by just coding the MATCH by hand. What in the code was causing the parsing error to make you unable to use the match GUI tool? I have looked all round Focal Point and the internet and in all cases they mentioned opening a case.

I don't see any verb in your TABLE requests, so they can't go very far. And of course WF isn't fond of lowercase code. Please post the actual TABLE and MATCH fex code.
