Steve,
Since this is an application, it may be that your variables are not being created before the form is run within the application. I have had similar problems with a quote entry form I use. I have forgotten to create the needed variables in the application before the form comes up. It is sometimes time consuming to track it down. I just had that problem this morning but found it quickly. My guess is your code that is running prior to the form coming up is where your problem is.

I am not sure vendor2 is a column This works vendorn = (ifnull(.v_vendorn, vendorn, .v_vendorn)) This does not vendor2 = (ifnull(.v_vendor2, vendor2, .v_vendor2)) It sets in form ok and I can exit the form and run the form right away from a R; prompt and it works ok, but when I run the application it errors out. Then can go back into form and enter it and save and it is fine again. I am working with a existing application so this can be dificult to figure out at times. I am trying to repeat a pllication process here for searching for vendor 1 for searching for a second vendor. searching for vendor one returns vendorn and searching for vendor 2 returns vendor2. In some cases we enter the vendor number and in other cases the variable v_vendorn or v_vendor2 is returned and set in the column vnedorn or vendor2. Any way this is a very basic explanation of what I am trying to accomplish.
