As Dan said, you add the parameter statement to the form init() (not the DE init() ). These variables will go out of focus as soon as the init() is complete, so if you need the values in another method be sure you store them to a form property.

FORM Init()

LParameter MyVar1, MyVar2

thisform.cMyVar1 = MyVar1
thisform.nMyVar2 = MyVar2

Now you can refer to these variables at any time.

>Can someone tell me how to pass a parameter to a form. Where do you list the parameter in the form designer i.e. (init of the data environment)
