>>>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.

Or just set your navigation buttons to change ix :)
