I did a quick test (six textboxes and one command button with no underlying logic) and the form closed ok. I suppose you could also put a "thisform.LastExtBox = .NULL." somewhere in the Release or Destroy or some other method.

Actually, I think my second method (although slightly more difficult to maintain) works much better. The first one has problems when you get past the last textbox and/or have other controls you don't want to reach via the command button.
