>>I created a HTML form from a VFP COM server that has numerous input controls (i.e. select,input,radio, etc etc). I have built the "name=" cluase based on the input type and file name (i.e. name=inFaxes_Type, Input control that is the faxes.type field in the database). After adding/editing the info. in the form I want to pass the request object back to the COM server save method. What is the VFP syntax to reference the items without know what the name is. I know the long hand is lorequest.form("inFaxes_Type").item(). In may case the methods are generic and the name cannot be hard coded. I Guess I'm looking for a way to to loop through the items picking out the name and value for each. I may need a way to access the equal of .count and Items.AtEnd() in VFP.

request.form

This would return, for example,

firstname=Scott&address=Peachtree+Road&zip=12345

I tried what you suggested and I can certainly see how it can work. However, request.form returns and awful ugly piece of string with numerous characters encoded into it. I could see this getting very long and hard to code and manage. I may even be way of track in what I am trying to do. I thought I would receive the Request Object in the Ofaxserver.Save method. If the hidden input field FaxKey was empty I would consider it an add else It would be a edit. I would then get the record as an object using scatter name or scatter name blank. I would then update the record object based on what was in the Request object through what I had hoped was a small for next loop something to the effect of :

For x = 1 to ItemsInRequest
lcItemName = Request.Form.Item(x) ???
lcItemValue = ???

loRecord.lcItemname = lcItemValue
next

Send loRecord to the actual table.
