Passing objects sounds like it could be very useful. I'm starting to get into OOP more, and realizing what I can do with an object.


>>I realize the form will be active while the popup is active. But my popup just calls another program. If during this other program it refers to the active form there could be problems. In my case, it just calls a custom method on the form, and from then on uses the "thisform" reference, so I'm safe there.

I've just got to say "duh" to that one. Somethings are so obvious I can't see them. :)

Thanks,
