>We have an old framework that we code around. All the tables used in a program are stored in a database. Therefore, we call a routine passing to it the name of the program that is running and it opens all of the necessary tables for that program.

>I'm now trying to incorporate this into a form. However, the name of the program is passed to the form. From what I understand, parms passed to forms are accessed in the Init method which fires AFTER the Load method. The Load method is where i need to open the tables (so that I can tie grids to tables, etc).

You can use a Private var and define a ParamName convention:
PRIVATE ParamName
ParamName = VarInfo
DO FORM
NEWOBJECT(
.... = m.ParamName
