Hello folks,

can we say that a fex is completely object-independant from the master? I mean if I change a master table adding a new column, do the fex/es will keep on running as they were?

Thanks to all giving me an explanation.

Adding new columns to a master description should not cause focexecs to stop working (with possible exception of MODIFY), as long as the table name(s) and field names addressed by the focexec have not changed.
