Question
My question is how a text box in visual foxpro is referred.
i.e. in vb, if text box name is ok1, then it is referred as ok1.text.  Like wise if a text box is named as ok1 in visual foxpro how do i assign a value to that text box variable.

Answer
Hi Venkat,
   In VFP, you can refer to a text box like

thisform.ok1.value from anywhere. (assuming, the form is the parent for the ok1 textbox)

In the instance of ok1, you can refer as this.value

Hope this helps

Best regards,
