For this kind of situation I have variables declared as private in the calling program (form). In this case, they would be seen in Form's Load (not in Init!).
In other words:
Calling program:
private tcFileName, tcMode
tcFileName = "myfile"
tcMode = "Manual
Form.Load
if vartype(m.tcFileName)="C"
...
endif
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
