>>>Is there a way to assign property values to a group of objects if there is not a value already asssigned? I'm looking to set all the HelpContextID properties for objects on a page (form, pageframe, whatever...) to a specific value unless they have previously been assigned in development. I'm trying to think of a way to use the SetAll method to handle this... Thanks!

See this message by Mike Helland Forum: Visual FoxPro Category: Forms & Form designer Title: Re: Iterating through form's controls Thread #407951 Message #408311 Actually, I recommend to look through the whole thread, since it contains several great advices. What I was suggested, was Trey's idea of using SetAll in conjuction with _assign.
