Pressummably, the @ combined with the point is confusing syntax for VFP.

Now, the DO command (for a PRG) passes information by reference anyway. I am not sure how it works with a form.

Try:

DO FORM FORM2 WITH ThisForm.aMyArray, and see whether it works.

In FORM2, you would have to copy it to an array property anyway, I believe; parameters aren't available after Init() finishes.

Copying large arrays, of course, is inneficient, and this is probably what worries you.

You can avoid copying parameters altogether by passing a single parameter for the form.

* Form1.Button.Click()
do form FORM2 with ThisForm.

* Form2.Init()
lParameters toParentForm
This.oParentForm = toParentForm

* Form2, anywhere else
* Example: show element #5 form1.aMyArray
wait window transform(ThisForm.oParentForm.aMyArray(5) timeout 1

HTH, Hilmar.
