>>>Good idea, George. It might be even easier to implement this idea in VFP 8 using BINDEVENT() function. Instead of creating separate _Assign methods one can bind the necessary properties to one custom check method, that fires whenever any bound property is changed and will validate all the properties.

>>Nick,
>>How do you go about binding properties? I would think you would still need an _ASSIGN for each property and then bind each _ASSIGN method to one custom check method. I'm not sure, in my mind, if this buys you anything other than adding a level of complexity (i.e. another method call).

Thanks, Nick. I hadn't seen that aspect of Bindevent().
