Hi Agnes.

oObject is a control on the form, say a Text Box.
The Control Source for the Text Box(Set up on the properties screen option)
is eqaul to : Thisform.objmemvar.MyField

(I have the following code elsewhwre )
Sele Myfile
Scatter Name ThisForm.Objmemvar
(This create a objMemvar.Field1,ObjMemvar.Field2,ObjMemVar.field3 etc for each field in the file)

Regards,

Gerard
