Hi Steve, The best way to address controls by their name, is by quoting the name : put the text of field "Foo" into bar If you don't put quotes around the field name, the engine will first look check if you passed it a number ; if so, it assumes you really wanted the 605th graphic on this card. If it is not a number (eg abracadabra), it will try to find a variable named abracadabra, and see if there is a field on this card with a name that corresponds to the value of that variable. Hope this clarified things a bit, Jan Schenkel. ===== "As we grow older, we grow both wiser and more foolish at the same time." (La Rochefoucauld) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
