Sergy,

If it's not a formset your using, look at the linked clause of DO FORM in help. If you create an object reference variable thne use it in the name clause with linked, then you can access the form's methods and properties anytime, anywhere.
It saves me alot of headache...

In main:

public oMyForm

then:

do form myform name oMyForm linked

then anytime while form is instanciated:

if type(oMyForm) = 'O'
? oMyForm.caption
? oMyForm.WhatEver()
endi
