    Calling forms using variables

    Hi

    I would like to know if it is possible to display a form using a variable containing the form name rather than the form name itself, I have tried everything I can think of and cannot make it work. I know I can use CASE SELECT but I have a large number of forms involved and would like to use a variable name if possible.

    Any advice will be much appreciated.

    Regards


    Jeff

    HI

    Although I cannot find out how to use variables directly, I am using macros to call the forms and can then use the RUN command with a variable to call the macro.

    Regards
