   Which is ofcourse very different from a 650kb with 50 k index file. The real   
   difference on small files is almost impossible to see.

   Thanks for the clarification, I wasn't sure that it brought ALL columns   
   over, even the one that is not included in the query. How about a  tcursor   
   then? Will a scan of all records eventually bring the enterie table over the   
   network, even the columns that is not refered to by the tcursor?
