>> how do I throw 4 textboxes on the form - one for each record?


Tracy, use the AddObject method of the form. For example:

YourForm.AddObject("txtPrinter1","textbox")
YourForm.txtPrinter1.Top  = lnTop
YourForm.txtPrinter1.Left = 10
YourForm.txtPrinter1.Visible = .T.

Note that lnTop you must calculate in order to put the textbox on the right place.
