Dragan:

I want the form to be as brainless as possible, so I'll ask my question a little differently:

1. In the calling form there will be an object with a method called 'SetFilter' that has all the code that you described. Depending on the situation, I want to modify the code (can this be done?).

2. I then call the brainless display form:

do form with loMyObject

3. All the brainless form needs to do is say in the init:

lpararameter toObject

toObject.setfilter()

The brainless form doesn't care what is in the setfilter method; the calling form took care of that. Can this be done?

Thanks,

Yossi
