I should have mentioned that we have already moved our app to VFP 6 because our next upgrade to our end users is not due for release until Sept or October. So we have some beta sites running the version we moved to 6.

As I mentioned earlier the reply from Ed led me to use the enable of the pages so when I changed that I added a form method to control pages when the form property was changed. The only reason I mentioned assign is because I just wanted to experiment a little with it. Thanks...
