Malcom,

Generally you want to avoid the macro substitution, as in &m, because it is very slow compared to name substitution. This becomes especially important in loops.

Try something like this:

MyVar = "Thisform.lAccessed" + ALLT(MyFormNumber)

Assuming MyFormNumber is '3', then ? m yields:

Thisform.lAccessed3

You can then to name substitutions:

STORE .t. TO (MyVar)

>m = ALLTRIM('lAccessed' + '3')
>*need to do this becuase the '3' changes depending on what the form number it's executed from (in this case it's form #3).
>
>m = 'THISFORM.' + m + ' = .T.'
>
>?m .... && shows THISFORM.lAccessed3 = .T.
>
>EVALUATE('m') does not change the lAccess3 to .T.
