>>You're right about adding the properties to the form, instead of using public. OTOH, sometimes i'm lazy, and i define all the memvars as public in the init, and release them in the unload method. This way, i can load the data with scatter and save with gather, instead of writing all the Replace commands.

And again BTW :)
Insetead od scatter-gather to memvar you could
scatter name thisform.oRecord
*bind controlsources to thisform.oRecord.Fieldname
..
gather name thisform.oRecord
too. Also for multiple scatters it could be an array property :

dimension thisform.oRecs[reccount()]
for ix=1 to reccount()
 scatter name thisform.oRecs[ix]
 skip
endfor

You could mimic kind of browse :)

for ix = 1 to 5
 with eval('thisform.mytxt'+ltrim(str(ix)))
 .Controlsource = 'thisform.oRecs['+ltrim(str(ix))+'.LastName'
 endwith
endfor

Or just set your navigation buttons to change ix :)
