New, Save, Cancel I've got a handle on OK, but can someone point the way to edit nirvana, I don't mind the rigors of the journey, I'm just not seeing the path.

That's an eye opener. Thank you kindly
I guess one of the things that was throwing me was the use of m.memvar. I see this used in the *wiz stuff from VFP6 and in the apps I'm maintaining, but I haven't seen that convention used in the books from the writers at hentzenwerke or in code snippets in this forum.
