How can I return a Parameter to the Calling Form 1

[LeonelSanchezJr]

I am calling a subform from a form like this:

DO FORMX WITH lnAnswer


How can I return lnAnswer to the calling form?
Thanks,

Leo ;-)

You really should read the fine manual.
Extract form the said manual:

Returning a Value From a Form
You can use forms throughout your application to allow users to specify a value.

To return a value from a form

Set the WindowType property of the form to 1 to make the form modal.


In the code associated with the Unload event of the form, include a RETURN command with the return value.


In the program or method that runs the form, include the TO keyword in the DO FORM command.
For example, if FindCustID is a modal form that returns a character value, the following line of code stores the return value to a variable named cCustID:

DO FORM FindCustID TO cCustID
