ResetTodefault(),PEM() ( and GETPEM() partially ) are relative to the VCX/PRG subclass.
Any value put into SCX property sheet are like to set it into the form's Load method.

try this:
- Set SCX Form.Caption = 'blablabla'
- put on the DataEnviroment.OpenTables ( fired before Load )
and on Form Load

wait window thisform.Caption

- run
whitin DE.OpenTables You see the form class Caption,
whitin SCX.load you see the 'blablabla' value.
