Assigning one value to an array var is the same as assigning the same value to each element in that array.

>>This is not related to object refs. In VFP, when a value is assigned to an array (used as simple var, not as array), all elements in the array are set to that value. Ex:
>>
>>dimension a[100]
>>for i = 1 to 100
>> a[i] = i
>>endfor
>>*-- Here all elements in the array are different
>>a = 5
>>*-- Here all elements in the array are 5
