Kent,

As Ken has said, set up the return variable in the Unload() of the form either that or you can actually do return <return_variable> in the Unload.

Personally I never pass back discrete variable but pass in/out a parameter "object" populated with various properties that I may need to use, change or pass back. Limiting yourself to passing one variable can be a real pain and you end up passing strings of made up parameters with delimiters etc etc..

Subject: Return value from form in class

Hello,

I am trying to build a form in a class. Everything is working ok, but now I want to return a value from the form.

How do I get the return value passed back to the calling form ?

Here is my code:

oForm = createobject("testform")

oForm.show(1)

lcReturnMsg = oForm.cReturnMsg

The problem is the 3rd line errors out with oForm not valid because the form has already released

So what is the trick to return a value from a form in a class ?

Thanks,

Kent
