Richard: I am creating a method in all of my labels. When you double click on the label it looks up a value and places it in the corresponding text box. In order for it to work I need to reference the field in the lookup table and the textbox based on the name of the label. I hope this makes sense, but Ken's response was exactly what I was looking for.

the question how does thisform know about the existence of myobj?

Subject: Proper way to reference a control

I want to assign a value to a control and then refresh it:

      thisform.txtimf.value = myobj.imf
      thisform.txtimf.refresh()

Where txtimf is a textbox and myobj.imf is a property of an object

I want to generalize this process with variables:

      thisform.txt ? .value = myobj. ?
      thisform.txt ? .refresh()

and I can't seem to get it right.

Any ideas?
