Re: Move from 5.01 to 7.21 4gl problem

David, I too have suffered from intermittent -254 errors on cursor usage that worked most of the time. However, it was on a 4.10 4gl and a 5.00 OL engine. In my case the cause was tracked down to erroneously freeing another cursor (in another file, and with a different name!) which hadn't been opened.
