You can also use CallByName() to fire off events and change properties...

>Hello Everyone,

>I'm a Visual foxpro programmer who has begin to learn Visual Basic, MTS and the other n-tier operations. There are on occasion when I wished (okay okay on many occasions) I wish I would get a functionality that came with Foxpro. I would hate to throw out all those skills. Anyway, In Foxpro one could use "&, ()" for Macro Substitutions (eg) lc_customer = "Customers" USE &lc_customer Tag &lc_customer -- USE (lc_customer) Tag (lc_customer). This allows me to reference "what's store in the location of variable" instead of the variable name itself. Million dollar question - "Is there a way to do in VB"
