>The following call to a modal form always returns true regardless of the what is being set in the form. The variable lOk is public and is only used as shown below. I know setting lOk in the Valid is superfulous, but the return by iteself wasn't working and I was grasping...

In fact, the only time lOk evaluates to .T. is on the line following the DO FORM call after returning from the OkNo form. I thought it might be variable scoping, but I haven't been able to find anywhere that lOk is being set to anything other than False. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Renoir,
When you use :
do form with ... to m.RetValue

m.RetValue is modal form's unload event's return value. If you have nothing in that method you'd get default return value .T. as expected.

In commandgroup valid only set return value and return that value from unload event.

*Commandgroup valid
thisform.tag = transform(this.value=1)
thisform.release

*Form unload
return eval(this.Tag)
