I have a form property called thisform.filename initialized to "c:\test\test.dbf"
When I run a query using "Select * From &thisform.filename" it errors saying the table is not found.

If I set the form property to a variable as follows:
lcfilename = thisform.filename
Select * from &lcfilename - the query works.

Is it that a form property is not really a variable as far as macro substition is concerned.
