In the form's load method:
IF TYPE('m.pcCurrentHall')="U"
PUBLIC m.pcCurrentHall
m.pcCurrentHall=" "
ENDIF
IF SET('DEVELOPMENT')="ON"
m.pcCurrentHall=" "
ENDIF
>Thanks for the tip. It didnt work though. It gave them the same error right when I hit enter to add the space.

>>>So I got VFP 8 (finnaly). When I open some of my forms now I get this error:
>>>
>>>"Data type is invalid for this property."
>>>
>>>I click "OK" and the form load/runs fine. I figured out that its because I reference a variable in the form caption property. It equals something like, = 'Resident Information - ' + m.pcCurrentHall. Now if I dont have m.pcCurrentHall delclared it gives me an error, and if its declared its fine. It never did this in VFP 7. My questions is, can I get VFP to stop giving me an error everytime I open the form in the form designer?
