Well, I'll thank you both then! (and stop sparring already! ;)

Seriously though. Can anyone shed any light on why this was a problem? According to the documentation quotes should not be required around the variable reference for a control source. Is this known VFP5 bad behaviour? Further, if you change the control source through the properties dialogue and insert quotes around the var name, you get (obviously, I think) the same error: Data Source for this object must be a variable reference. Any further thoughts?
