Hi Jim ----

>Have you tried building another form to check if this is something that is happening with all forms or just the one? I'm at a loss also, although I never use public memvars for this knid of stuff.
I've see this behavior if a variable is defined as PUBLIC but then subsequently a variable is defined with the same name elsewhere in the app with a LOCAL or LPARAMETERS statement. Think that might be it?
