>With VFP8 "m" stands for more than just 'memory variable'. From the VFP8 Help for SCATTER: "To reference a property in an object that has the same name as an open table, preface the property name with the m. qualifier.". So it now can pertain to properties too.

Shouldn't that read:

"preface the object with the m.qualifier."

IE: m.yourobject.property

The above reads like yourobject.m.property
