I need both files open together because I have to back out some changes
done
to the production file. If I renamed input the the actual file name I
would
have access to the fields but i would have it defined twice in the
program.
doing an ovrdbf might be the only option if i cant get to the fields in
the
file by just using extfile/extmbr.

I am curious why you need it opened twice? However, could you leave
"input" as usropn, and do an ovrdbf to "mvmndb"?
