@Jeanne:

No, there is no STORE FIELD, Chris's syntax is correct, it is:

STORE [fieldlist FROM] table INTO .....

Have you checked, whether there are entries for "Land", think that you get this error also when trying to save a table or a field, which has no content.

@Peter,

I checked, but I cannot confirm that. Even if I read in the field with Null() as Land there doesn't seem to be any problem.

@ Joachim,

Is probably then the .qvd blocked by another application (or previously crashed QV)? Have you tried to store into a new name?

Chris,

you could try two things:
- Make sure that before executing the script/reloading there is NO test.qvd in the target directory to find out if QVD is blocked and cannot be overwritten (as Peter suggests).

- Create a brand new qvw and copy the script to the new qvw and try again.

If both things don't help, I think it's really better to pass it to support.

Rgds,
Joachim
