Thanks to those who answered my question about the disappearing data
control!  (particularly, the guy who suggested a look in VB.INI; that
was exactly what was wrong.  How I did that, I've no idea..  and of
course I left your name at home, but you know who you are<g>)

Another related question.  I'm having trouble figuring out how to
specify an index when attaching to a dBase III file.  I've created the
.INF file with the index filenames in it, and it is in the same
directory with the .DBF.  I've tried

Data1.Database.TableDefs("tvstatio").Indexes(0).Name="NDX1"
Data1.Database.TableDefs("tvstatio").Indexes(0).Name="tvstati1"

(the .DBF file is tvstatio.dbf, and the .NDX is tvstati1.ndx.  Yes, I
do have a data control on my form.)

I've tried a few other syntaxes too, but everything I try returns an
"Object Variable Not Set" error.  The help files, EXTERNAL.TXT,
printed manual, and WWW FAQ aren't much help.  Any ideas?
