First, the really obvious - your code is actually something like

lnStatus = ThisForm.FaxManJr1.Status

... some actions based on value of lnStatus ...

Assuming the above is true, STATUS is a reserved word (SET STATUS, DISPLAY STATUS etc.) in VFP, which may be the root cause of this error. If that's the case and it's a 3rd party control you might be in trouble. If it's your own, you could rename the property :-)
