>>>>>I have a text box that is disabled and I wish it to display the contents of a memory variable. With debug window open and this.cUserName displays the contents, but I cannot figure out where to put the code to make it display in the text box. Tried *=this.cUserName* in the value but no go, also tried it in the control source, init of the form...etc. Any ideas?
>>>>Where are you setting the variable?
>>>It is stored to cUserName in my PUBLIC nonvisual application.

>>>I have tried this with no luck. this.cUserName displays it as well as oApp.cUserName. The value is out there, I'm just having difficulty assigning the value to display in my textbox.
>>Normally it's enough to issue:
>>thisform.YourTxtBox.value=cVariable
Where should I issue this???
>>If it doesn't work I would recommend to check ControlsSource (make it empty), InputMask and/or Format properties.
It is!
>Most likely controlsource is the culprit. what does the object show?
Confused!
