Hola Javier! Practico mi inglés!
An interesting use of load() methods, came when you need to setup the data environment, or open database and use tables, in a form class. You can define controns in the form class, with ControlSources like "customer.name", but you don't have a data enviroment in the class. Generally, you can set up a private dataenviroment (with a property in the form), and in the load method put:
open database sales
use customers
and perhaps, adds some cursorsetprop(....). I think that you can add a Data Environment class, too. The data enviroment class must be defined in a prog (no vcxs for DE class.... snif). Check the Griver "CodeBook" or the "Visual Fox Unleashed" from SAMS, where all this is explained and used....
