Hello,
FrmDodialog works in the sense that it only pops a form and waits until a
user hits a control, then closes, returning the id of the tapped control. at
that point, the field contents, and all form memory is wiped out.
Stick with FrmPopupForm.... Works better and more functional. Do all the
Field init in that form's handler. (In the FrmOpen event.)
