>>>I am not sure exactly what you want to do.

>>>To loop through the textboxes, you might use something like this:
>>>
>>>

>>>for i = 1 to 12
>>>  loTextBox = eval("ThisForm.Text" + trans(i))
>>>  loTextBox.Value = ...
>>>  loTextBox.Visible = ...
>>>  loTextBox.Top = ...
>>>  * or whatever other property you want to change in each TextBox
>>>next

>>>
>>>REPLACE is used for fields in a table. To change the TextBox, just use the .Value property.

>>>If you want to REPLACE table fields, where do you have the name of the fields, and the values?
