Hi all. I tried to add a couple of text boxes into an existing form. I set the property and everything else for text boxes. However, when i run the form, i had error message variable name not found. Unbiding object and the name of the object. I don't understand the source of the error message. I think i need to add new field into table, but i am not sure how to do it, please help. Thanks
 
This error means that VFP can't locate the variable / form property / field name you got in the Textboxes' ControlSource property. If it is a new field in your table, then you'll need to add it.

Menu -> Window -> Data Session -> Open (button). Check exclusive, and locate the table you want to update (this assumes it's not currently open or in use by someone else). Make sure the table is selected (highlighted) in the Aliases area, and then click on Properties, then click on Modify. Then in the Table designer, Click insert, fill in the name, chose the type and any required options, repeat untill you have all the fields you need, then click OK and answer Yes to make the changes permanent! If you spelled everything the same as you did in the form, then you shouldn't get the 'unbinding' error message any more.
