Patti, Sometimes weirdness happens and the only way to fix is start over. Just re-create the form.

The other one has coordinates that are nearby. When I select it in object list, no field is highlighted by the dots on the form. I'm looking right where the field should be. When I click in object list and hit delete on the phantom field, nothing happens.

I went into designer and only see one field (a variable) that calls that eep. I looked at Object List and it appears twice. I can click on the Object List and find one of them, but not the other. I looked in Tabbing order and it only appears once. So I tried to use the left & top coordinates to find the phantom field. The good variable is located Left: 159 and top: 292. The bad one is Left: 161 and Top: 110. I found a field that is near that location and moved it, but there's nothing underneath. I tried to catch it by roping around that area and hitting delete, but it's still in my Object list. I unloaded and loaded the form again, but it's still there. Is there some other way I can delete that field? I still don't know why the eep is executing 3 times either. Thanks, Patti
