Okay...that is a personal thing...but in this case, if I were arguing, I would contend that if we are issuing a CLEAR EVENTS, we know that we are done with this form...but I am not arguing...

I am not saying that code in the QueryUnload procedure might not be needed, just that the CLEAR EVENTS could go in the Destroy procedure.

Anyways, just a matter of taste.

Take care,
