Craig,
I want to really, really thank you for this. I have been putting up with about 20 errors for over two years. Having to read through all the undefind arrays to see if there were any real errors was a real pain. You have no idea what it's like to see a clean build screen after all that.

John.

>>I have an array that is in a visual class used on a form. In a method of that class I set la_array[1,1] = "MAIN". When I compile the application that includes that form I get Unable to find Unknown la_array. I've tried putting EXTERNAL ARRAY la_array before the form is called in the main code and after the array is declared but that didn't do it. Does anyone have any suggestions?
