Yes, I was using MS SQL Server Management Studio Express. I cannot
believe it! When someone is trying to learn the basics and the table
refresh (or even db refresh as I just tried) doesnt work properly-
this is rubbish!
Thanks very much Erland- I tried a select statement (which didnt occur
to me a couple of nights ago when despairing at my incompetance !! !-)
and all of my statements were working fine.
Well, another 5 hours wasted on systems saying one thing and doing
another- search phrase REFRESH DOESN'T WORK.

Thanks again,
Dan
