Hi Greg,

In CodeBook The DoForm procedure is contained in Util.prg and I'm fairly certain that the statrup.prg has a SET PROCEDURE TO UTIL ADDITIVE.

What framework are you using? Also, have you added a SET PROCEDURE without the ADDITIVE clause somewhere? That would clear all other SET PROCEDURES.

>Thanks Mike but this didn't work for me. Here's the results of the things I tried:
>DoForm('Formname',variable) and =DoForm('Formname',variable) returns the error: doform.prg does not exist

>This code expects that the Bookmark class, which we'll look at in a moment, has been instantiated into a global variable called oBookmark. The AddBookmark method of that class expects two parameters: the command to execute when the bookmark is selected and the caption for the bookmark. In this case, the command tells VFP that if the active form is the customers form, call the Seek method of that form with the customer's CUST_ID value (that method positions the form to the specified key value); if there's no active form or it isn't the customers form, call the DoForm method of the application object, telling it to run the customers form and passing the CUST_ID value (the Init method of the customers form accepts an optional CUST_ID value and calls the Seek method if it's passed). The company name is used as the caption for the bookmark.
