Hi Stephen,

If you want your form to return some value, the form should be modal. In the Unload method of the form you would put return MyRetVal

and you would call your form this way:

do form MyForm with myVar to myRetVar.

There is a trick to return value from a non-modal form, but may be modal will work for you?

Is it your question?

 If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
