Tracy, Not of help as you can't Acopy() inside the object because: 1. if you want to aCopy the Thisform.aArray it doesn't recognise the Thisform part of the statement.
2. If you do the aCopy before you do the assign to the Object Property then you are in the same situation as when you started because the copied array gets sent in as only the first element once again and cannot be passed in with the @ sign as the destination is a property and not a UDF. Racking my brains here to think out a solution or even a work around!! I use objects to pass parameters into a udf() or Screen etc. many times but this is the first time I have wanted to pass an array. I am now examining using a collection as opposed to an array but to be honest I don't really want to go that way, but if all else fails...
