I am using WF version 7.6.9 and have an odd problem when using the USE command to concatenate Focus tables. When I put the file OPNRCPPGI AS OPNRCPG_G as the last table in the list of files it duplicates the records. If I move it up it doesn't. Here is the command with it as the first file. Are there limitations to this command? I have not found anything in the documentation.

USE
OPNRCPPGI AS OPNRCPG_G
OPNRCPC AS OPNRCPG_G
OPNRCPQ AS OPNRCPG_G
OPNRCPQAR AS OPNRCPG_G
OPNRCPS AS OPNRCPG_G
OPNRCPS1 AS OPNRCPG_G
OPNRCPS4 AS OPNRCPG_G
OPNRCPV AS OPNRCPG_G
OPNRCPV1 AS OPNRCPG_G
OPNRCPV4 AS OPNRCPG_G
OPNRCPT AS OPNRCPG_G
OPNRCPT1 AS OPNRCPG_G
OPNRCPT4 AS OPNRCPG_G
OPNRCT91 AS OPNRCPG_G
-*OPNRCPPGI AS OPNRCPG_G
END


Thanks
Mark

This may not help at all, but I always clear previous USE commands (even if there weren't any) before executing new ones:

USE CLEAR

[SOLVED] I found the problem to this but it is strange. Before the USE command I had an ?FF command on one of the other files that was mispelled. When this was fixed the problem went away. Computer Trolls?
