Nancy,

Thanks for the suggestion.  I originally had dem and changed it to imp thinking that dem was causing the problem, although I have used dem multiple times in the past with no problems.

I did not get to the end of the stream but did you try using a different name for the "imp" part of the import.

See if you are fighting with a reserved word or function in filepro.

Always worth a try.
