Armin,

The Objects[] and Controls[] collections will only ever have contained objects in them, those dropped onto the form at design time, or created at runtime via AddObject() method calls.

Any object that is created via CreateObject() or NewObject() and assigned by reference to an object property are not "contained" by the object so they will not be in the Objects[] collection. You can use amembers() to get to these kind of objects.

>Ok, but this only applies to _VFP.Objects. If you have a look at the content of the Objects collection in _SCREEN, forms, containers, etc., you will notice that you only get the objects that are direct children of the container. No other objects, e.g. objects created and stored in a property of a form are in there. Or am I missing something?
