Oops!
I didn't realise I had been posting in HTML.  I think I have fixed that now.

Thanks for the suggestion, but what I actually want to do is pass a
parameter from one form to another form which then calls the ZSQL Method
using the parameter as a variable in the manner you suggested.

Does that make sense or is it double dutch.

Regards
Ausitn
