Very Computer

can anyone explain to me how the VFP example doing the searching? i just
know the form is find order in tastrde example, i can't understand how i can
return back to the previous recno() if the user click the cancel button, i
don't now from where and how to define the variable, i tried b4, but error
message show that the variable that i define is not a variable for the
program....

can anyone show me the way, please

     Not exactly, but the trouble you are having appears to be that
you defined a private or local memvar and it is out of scope as you
are referring to it in another method of the class.  If this is so,
add the save value as a property instead.  That way it will have a
scope of the whole class.

Sincerely,

The variable is likely a Property. Every class can have properties added to
it when you define the class in The Class Designer. When you're in the Form
Designer you can use the menu pad Form - Add Property to add a property to
the form. I haven't seen the Fond Order example in Tastrade but look for
Thisform.nOldOrder or something similar.
If you create a variable b4 for use in a procedure of an object, the
variable goes out of scope and dies when the procedure ends. Properties
remain as long as the object they are members of remain.
