Can you post the code that you use to call the second form and let me
know where this is called in your first form. Also post the code from
your second form's Load method.
Frank.

No matter what I do or try callingform returns not an object on the second form.
What is really strange is that I don't do any of this in other applications. I
just make reference to the form name and it works. I can't figure out what is
different...

I guess maybe you don't have an activeform at that point in time?
Add this code in instead:
IF TYPE("_Screen.ActiveForm.BaseClass") = "C"
THIS.CallingForm = _Screen.Activeform
ENDIF

Jack,
Add a property to your base form class called something like
"CallingForm" and set it to NULL as default. Then, in the called base
form class' Load, add code like this:
THIS.CallingForm = _Screen.Activeform
Then you can always refer to the previous form using
This.CallingForm
So you can:
This.CallingForm.Top = 5
This is off the top of my head but should at least get you going.
Frank.

Good Afternoon All
I have done this before and can't get it to work now.
I have a modeless form as a top level form and run the next form. Now I want to
get data from the top level form on the now modal form and it tells me that the
modeless form name is not an object.
On the modal form:
lnForm_top = frmModeless.top
and it says that frmModeless is not an object.
But wexist('frmModeless') returns true...
What am I doing wrong? I have checked other instances of this in other systems
and it works perfectly. I just can't see any differences...
Thnaks!
