Thanks Javier.
I append the version # in DB explorer that you've shown when I unload a
form or report to transfer from development db to production:
dbname_Form_FormNameV60.frm
That prevents name collision and also serves as backups for the form (or
report) if I really blow things up.

Doug,
R:azzak provided the solution to obtain the version by code but you
can always find it using the DB Explorer:
I use the version number to check which is the latest version but I
wish there would be an extra field where we could enter our own
version number and select which is the working version.
When I am working on and testing a form/report as I go along, every
time I run the form/report from the designer after a change the form
is saved (as it should be) and the version number is increased (again
as it should be) by one and by the time I am done it might be on
version 50 or 60 even when I am on only the second version of the
upgraded form.
It would be handy to have a versioning system where various iterations
of the form could be saved with the same name but a different user
version number and one could be selected to run as default when the
form/report name is called and one could go back to previous version
if the new one has issues.…makes sense? Just thinking aloud…
Probably will be in the next update. J

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Form version number
I'm really beginning to rely on form and report version numbers.
Is there a property to get the version number of a form or report? (I
couldn't find one in RDocs).
Version # doesn't show in a form Ctrl-Alt-I.
It would be helpful in a development situation where I'm working on a
form and I need to check to make sure the production db has the most
recent form.
TIA,
Doug
