AKhan,

It looks like the variables are going out of scope...IOW, once the init() method ends, all of those variables are gone.

One workaround *may* be to declare all those variables public before restoring from the memvar file, but this is a bad practice, and we'd have to send Jim Booth after you :)

Another option is to add a custom properties to your form to hold all of those values (manually setting the properties in the init(), and putting them back to variables before saving to the file).

Yet another option, (my favorite), is to lose the memory file completely, and find another place to store these values...such as in a table.
