Alastair -
If I read your question correctly you are asking if there is a way
to get a variable value input on a form currently being displayed into that
form's caption. The short answer is no. The long answer is that the
CAPTION is defined before the form is displayed and there is no provision
within RBase for changing the caption of a form while the form is being
displayed.
