Ken,

One more question/thought/issue on SCATTER NAME oTable1 MEMO that has me thinking...

It worked...

But I was wondering if I did something wrong by declaring PUBLIC oTable1, when I used LOCAL oTable1 in the form Init, I got an error "Alias oTable1 not found" or something like it.

But I figure I am OK declaring PUBLIC oTable1 as long as in my other form I delcare PUBLIC oTable2, that way fieldnames won't get confused. Am I right and does what I did to make this work make sense? Or is there a better way to define oTable1 such as in the .PRG that runs the forms? I just want to make sure I do this completely right and not half-way since I will be applying this same technique to many forms.

Thanks very much. That was easier than changing DB fieldnames. Whew... Learned something new today.
