Good Evening Mike:
Thanks for the help but when I run this:
for each oForm in _vfp.forms
IF LOWER(oForm.Name) = "frmcoach" then
frmCoach.top = 5
EXIT
ENDIF
endfor
When the frmCoach.top was evaluated it returned frmCoach is not an object but
when I changed it to oForms.top = 5 it did execute and move the form.
In my other systems I say
Public frmCoach
then issue frmCoach.top = 5 from another form with no issues. I can't figure
what is wrong or what could be different.
Best regards,
Jack

Just a quick work-around:
for each oForm in _vfp.forms
if oForm.Name = "TheOneIWant" then && there you go
MyValue = oForm.WhateverPropertyYouWant
exit && assuming you got the form you wanted and don't care about
the rest
endif
endfor
