>I am using VFP3. I have a project done with all the forms and tables done. When I compile the program to an EXE it compiles fine. However when I run my program, anytime a form hits a line "thisform.whatever" it gives me an error message that "thisform" is not an object. The thisform is the form name..

Bob, are you using the "thisform.whatever" in a PRG? If so, you will have to pass the form name of the form calling the PRG as a parameter.

If this is not the case, check to make sure you have the correct hierarchy. For example a textbox on a page frame would be called as

thisform.MyPageFrame.Page1.MyTextBox.value

Of course you'll have to put the correct names for the pageframe, page, etc.
