>What you're attempting to do is to set the Visible property to .T./.F. depending on what the variable tag is. If what you're trying to check is the .Tag property for each control, you'll have to do it in a loop, not with .SetAll().
That's what I wound up doing.
I was hoping there was some syntax which could indicate I wanted the property inside the control. Sort of like
.setAll('property',@controlproperty = value,'class')
I couldn't find anything like that in the help but it wouldn't be the first time I've missed something in help (and probably won't be the last).
Thanks for responding
