You can if you want (especially writing this code into specific method), but considering also other alternatives:
1. Look one more time at other replies about DO FORM ....
2. Use app property-array to hold all values (e.g. these 15 textbox values) shared between different forms.
3. Use cursor(s) to hold all values (e.g. these 15 textbox values) shared between different forms.
4....
