With DO FORM all parameters are passed by reference. To pass parameter by value enclose it in parenthesis.

DO FORM AddSamp WITH (lcSample), (lnReps), (lnPackages), 3, (lcProcess), lcTemp

>DO FORM AddSamp WITH lcSample, lnReps, lnPackages, 3, lcProcess, @lcTemp

>I get an error. My objective is to pass by reference all the variables except lcTemp. The form has a listbox and whatever is selected in that listbox is returned back to the calling form. However, I get an 'command cotains an unrecognized command word/syntax' error.
