I always use a form specific prefix, like fEdCst_ for the EditCustomer form. Then, I declare my variables in the ON BEFORE START EEP, and in my ON CLOSE EEP I do CLEAR VAR fEdCst_% This way: 1. I have no spare variables lying around. 2. If I forget to clear them, I know where they came from. 3. I have no worries (well, fewer worries) about variables banging into each other if I load say, six or eight different forms while the main one is open. -- Larry
