>IS there a way in VFP to return multiple values from a User Defined Function? I don't want to use an Array, then I have to pass by reference and I am trying to avoid that. I have thought about casting and concatenating the values to a single string then returning that and parsing it when needed but I know there has to be a 'cleaner' way to accomplish this.

Woodie,

As the others have told you, there're a number of ways of doing this. What they haven't told you is that this isn't a particularly good idea.

Why? Good practice is to invoke functional cohesion. What this means is that a given method/procedure/function does one, and only one, thing only.

This makes your code more flexiable, and, at the same time, more re-usable.
