Hilmar,

Another way to do it with out macro substitution...using this method would even allow for methods of the object to be called.

for nField = 1 to 48
    oTextBox = eval("thisform.text"+ transform(i))
    oTextBox.value = "Value :" + transform(i)
next i

>>Without macro substitution...

>>for FieldNum = 1 to 48
>>  STORE FieldNum TO ("ThisForm.Text" + trans(FieldNum)+".Value")
>>next
>>
