Please don't succumb to the temptation to declare PUBLIC variables. PUBLIC variables do you njo good at all, they get in the way and they limit the flexeibility of your design and work.


Jim,

I was thinking the same thing. Add a property to my application class to hold a reference to the reindex form. Any ideas as to how I can ease the testing cycle when I run this and an application object is not instantiated?

Thanks
