>I am glad it works for you. I think it is cleaner to use this.Text compared to just Text and also the intellisense kicks in after the dot. Most of the time you want to put all your constructor code after InitializeComponent() but there are some cases where you want to put it before (and ofcourse now I can't think of any<s>).

Comparing to VFP, the "form construction" is separated into two steps: Load() and Init(). Form.Load() fires before the components are initialized, Form.Init(), after. Specifically in VFP, some things that have to be done in Form.Load() are opening tables. - Of course, I have no idea how far the analogy applies, since .NET is such a different environment - and I haven't worked with data access yet.
