Hi Lahav,

Good to hear from you my man!

Ref: "An easier way to think of CALL FORM is to look at it as the old ON 
OUTSIDE CALL event in a form, but with the added bonus of being able pass data 
to the form as parameters from the calling process, without using global 
variables."

I kind of get that but can’t see where the form captures as event (we don't 
have On Call Form) so I know where to append to the listbox with the new 
rows/data as it’s being returned.

Does that make sense? That’s where my confusion lies.

John…
