If I'm following you correctly, I would create a form method MyMethod with a parameter. In the button click, I'd either call Thisform.MyMethod(1) (Where the numeric is different for each button), or better yet ThisForm.MyMethod(this.name) (allowing for exactly the same code in each button) Then in the method, use a CASE statement, and proceed from there. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/49cbba9f.9050...@taconic.net ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
