If your HOLD files are indexed by SITEID that's the field you should use to join, instead of SID.

Please see [SOLVED] Join Error Message

"two individual fields can be joined from the host file, the cross-referenced file requires the one concatenated field".

Why are you adding an index on SITEID and then not using it in you joins? You should be joining to an indexed field in a FOCUS db. It also might help to specify the tables you are using in you join so as not to confuse WF. You probably want

JOIN H1.SID AND H1.ID1 IN H0 TO ALL SID AND ID1 IN H2 AS J2

A couple of suggestions:

1. It is usually "good" to stay away from using PRINT *. It is preferred to list the specific fields you want to use in your request. If you only need FIELD1, FIELD2 and FIELD3 then it is better to make your request specific to that. PRINT * usually leaves some open Enigma as to what the request is all about Wink

2. You should only need an INDEX for those files that will be used as "cross-referenced" ones. Therefore, if H0 is your host file as I can see from the sample code you posted, then an index on SITEID is not required.
