Ken, The only thing I'm not doing, is setting the database object first. I usually drop both objects from the pallette on the form first, and then fill them both out, the database object first...and THAT, seems to be the only thing different. Here's the problem, I set the properties before saving the form for all three of the forms, and the one that I do different by dropping both objects from the pallette onto the form and then filling them both out, is the only one NOT getting that property assignment. So, I guess we could list this as a bug, considering that both are getting set before saving the form officially, it still should see and set the property like it does for the other two forms. That's why my custom buttons wouldn't work without hard coding the link to the rowset, because the form.rowset property was never getting assigned the way I was doing it. Cool...I'm not going insane. :) Lee On 7/1/2023 8:16 AM, Ken Mayer wrote: <snip> > If you are doing this by: > > a) drag a database object to the surface from the Component Palette and > set the databaseName to one in the list using the inspector; > b) drag a query object to the surface from the Component Palette (note > that the database property is automatically set) and set the sql > property to something like "select * from tablename", you still get (I > did a really simple test here): > > this.DATABASE1 = new DATABASE(this) > with (this.DATABASE1) > left = 3.0 > top = 1.0 > width = 6.0 > height = 1.0 > databaseName = "DBASESAMPLES" > endwith > > this.QUERY1 = new QUERY(this) > with (this.QUERY1) > left = 13.0 > top = 1.0 > width = 4.0 > height = 1.0 > database = form.database1 > sql = "select * from fish" > endwith > > this.rowset = this.query1.rowset > > > > Note the last line of code.
