Thought of that, but in the Load the member's have not been created yet, right? I need to reference a value on one of the form's objects. I want to do it in the best place that it will only be set one time when the form is run.

>>Been out of work or working so much in old FPW that I have forgotten this. I set a variable in the INIT of a form and it is then out of scope when the INIT is exited. I thought if I set it in the INIT it would remain in scope for all of the form's members. Thanks!
