Thanks I made the change, but it still doesn't solve my problem. Listbox #2 gets populated just fine, but when I select fields to be deleted, they stay .F.. Consequently the fields never get deleted. I have tried the code

use t in 1
thisform.bwlist2.RowsourceType = 2
thisform.bwlist2.Rowsource = "t.field_name"

in both Command button #1 and as a method in the parent form and bwlist2 won't return a .T.?
