Hi,

I have a user defined screen in which I want to assign the controsource of a textbox to a value stored in a variable.

This works fine:
.controlsource='ARCHIVE.FAX'

I have a table called udarc which holds the field_name I want to assign as the control source
unfortunately when I do:

lcsource='ARCHIVE.'+udarc.field_name
.controlsource=lcsource

I get:

the data source for this object must be a variable reference.

In this case of course the value in udarc.field_name is 'FAX'

How do I get this to work?

Thanks in advance,

Brian
