>Thanks,

To the other replies you got, I want to add that STORE is sometimes very useful to assign to properties. The following would be typical for my applications (except for the object names):

* Form.Init()
store gu_userlevel = 1 to;
  ThisForm.Cmd1.Enabled, ThisForm.Cmd2.Enabled, ThisForm.Cmd3.Enabled
Once more, if you use "=" for assignment, you would need three statements.


As to whether a command is support or not: in this case, type HELP STORE. Since it appears in the manual, it is supported. Even most old commands like "@...BOX" (where the manual says "included for backward compatibility") are supported. However, you will have to put your hands on FoxPro 2.6 to find out what such a command actually does. Some of them old commands can still be quite useful, and not only for "backward compatibility".

Hilmar.
