Hi, Walter.

Ok. I thought it was this, but I wanted to be sure that was the requirement. I'm sorry I didn't have time to go back to this, as I'm quite busy right now. Anyway, I see that some people offered interesting approaches already.

My take, anyway, would be probably to handle this by raising an event to which the control you designated would subscribe (to keep your idea of just switching a bit on). I don't do so much user interface stuff on my own these days, so I didn't have to resolve this particular problem, but I could write the example later for you. I just have to find some time in the middle of a few tasks I have to finish first.

In any case, Walter, I guess that as curious and motivated as you are, you should try learning .NET, not with a "conversion" idea, but just to get to new ideas that you always could apply to VFP or any other tool. I'm sure you'd enjoy the ride.

See you!
