Quick screen

there are new'ish ( PH8 on ? ) limitations on temps but I think that it
simply stops you adding 'reset at' syntax to temps that occur with
files/tables.
Also, you can't use item(n) syntax in quick, but only quiz/qtp - you have to
use for loops in quick. And if you have repeating items in records
referenced in clusters you have to use 'GHOST' screems ! :)
Regards, Joe.

Blue,
I remember being able to create a temp item "occurs with " clause, or
just "occurs NN". I'm not sure which, but I think that is no longer
allowed - qdesign will complain about it.
