>What is an array property on a form and how is it different than a regular run-of-the-mill property? Or is the difference in how I use it? Thanks!

Renoir,

It's maybe easier to compare each to it's standard variable equivalent

Variable                   Property

m.fred = 10                thisform.fred = 10

Dimension myArray[5]       Dimension thisform.myArray[5]
myArray[1] = 10            thisform.myArray[1] = 10
myArray[2] = "Hello"       thisform.myArray[2] = "Hello"

The variables are scoped to the current method/prg the form based properties are scoped for the entire form.

An array property in a form is just defined with a myArray[1] in the form/new property menu item.

The only other limitations for form based properties (and array properties) is that they cannot be passed by reference to a function (normal vars and arrays can)
