CHOOSE from the table would nearly mimic what you are already doing.

So if I create a table and form to select the form name that would work.

Tom,

For what it's worth ...

The end-user or even developers (with only one exception), does NOT have access 
to any embedded resources while running a compiled application. These embedded 
resources, if any, are available only when using the appropriate command, such 
as EDIT Using ... PLUGIN .... PRINT ReportName ..., etc.

In your specific scenario, you will have to start building a table for all your 
embedded resources, to be maintained regularly, if you need to use those 
objects with the CHOOSE command, etc. especially when those objects are no 
longer a part of the underlying database.

Hope that helps you understand the logistics of embedding resources within 
R:Compiler 9.5 applications while completely removing those objects (Forms, 
Reports, and Labels) from your database.

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Compiler question
I have been using compiler for awhile, and now that I am compiling additional 
resources(forms, reps, etc) I have seem to run into a problem.  I have compiled 
my labels and have a form where a default label can be picked, by selecting 
from a choose label.  If the labels are not actually in the database vs a 
compiled resource, nothing pulls up.  If they are in the database it works.  Am 
I wrong in using the choose command or should I be using something else
