As others said, the load event fires first and even before that, the DE
instantiates first.
Here is a trick I use if I need to pass cursors,objects and properties to a
form with a private data session:
In the calling event of the first form I create an XML cursor thus:
local oXML,cXML
select mycursor
oXML = Createobject("XMLAdapter")
oXML.AddTableSchema('mycursor')
oXML.ToXML("cXML")
DO Form "fmova.SCX" WITH 'acp_vu1', thisform.oData,cXML
In the above manner you pass the object, the variable (acp_vul) and a cursor
(as xml)
In the receiving form's INIT event you would have code like this:
lparameters pAcp_vul,poData,pcXML
this.addproperty('acp_vul')
this.acp_vul = pAcp_vul && now your passed property is
available at the form's level
this.addproperty('oData')
this.oData = poData && now your object is in the
called form
xmltocursor(pcXML,'newcursor',4) && now you have the cursor in your called
form
With the above technique you do not need to fool around with the DE and
because the called form has a private data session, you do not interfere
with the data in the calling form; the only care you should have is to close
the open cursor in the unload or destroy events of the called form.
Hope this helps

Subject: passing parms to a modal form
I'm sure I've done this dozens of times but can't get this one to work:
in the rightclick() of a [main] form I have:
DO Form "fmova.SCX" WITH 'acp_vu1', thisform.oData
fMova is a modal form, it has a de which only has code in afterclosetables
I put the data logic in form.load and it didn't work, debugger showed
form.init being called followed by the form objects inits (which need a
cursor open) - so I moved the data logic to the init BUT the parameters are
not being passed.
Help! says parms are passed to the load of a modal form but load wasn't
being called [yet?]
So where do I pick up the parms?
