Modify Form myform Nowait

I guess I misunderstood you, and thought I could proceed by the writemethod code rather then "ZForm.cmd1.Click = "Release thisform". I am experimenting, not sure why folks do this programatically rather then the form designer.
PS you code doesn't quite work, there's a modi form statment in it
and 'lax' dopes not exist. Did it work for you?
