Dawn,
Does this % represent all open variables for this form?  I thought you had to list them:
CLEAR VAR v1,v2,v3  etc.

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.
