dynamically updating variable in different form

[astraltango]

ok, I have two forms: Form1 and Form2

I want to set a puiblic variable (str1) in Form1 from Form2. Works fine if I use the following:

Forms!Form1.str1 = "blah"

BUT, I need to do this dynamically where the form name is in a variable. For this I need the eval function right? But this does not seem to work despite there being no errors:

str2 = "Form1"
Eval "Forms!" & str2 & ".str1 = ""blah"""

In fact, I've found that not even this will work:

Eval "Forms!Form1.str1 = ""blah"""

Any ideas how I can accomplish this?

Don't know about the Eval function, but referring to forms dynamicly, can be performed like this (here also using your public):

[tt]Forms(str2).str1 = "blah"[/tt]
