Sami, thanks. I think what you describe is super, but it might be a bit more than I need for this particular issue, at least as I began to pare things down to the most essential functionality I require. However, just to be sure I understand, is what your describing here a means for enumerating the different events/methods, as might done implicitly in VB/Delphi/C++?
For example, assume that I have a button that says "EXIT" with BTN_EXIT.CMD attached to it. Having, as you indicated : > SET VAR fButton INTEGER = 0 prior to form entry, then my BTN_EXIT.CMD could : > SET VAR fButton = 99 Then, if the user clicked the "EXIT" button, the value of 99 for fButton would "tell" me that they clicked the "EXIT" button. If it were still 0, then, as this is still the pre-entry value, I know that they left the form by clicking the [X] or perhaps some other means, but not by choosing one of the eep-enabled form objects. Is this a (more-or-less) correct understanding?
