Hi Richard,

The object is a radio box control rather than a push button control, and it has two items: Save and Cancel. By default, Save is selected. Beneath it there is a push button control labelled 'Exit" with commandOnClick = 'End'. I guess what I need to do is have code in the radio box section to do two things when the user changes the selection from Save ro Cancel: 1) set my own variable to 'Cancel,' a value that gets passed back to the calling frame, and 2) execute the cancel command and close everything without the user having to click on the 'Exit' button. From what you've said below, that second part should bypass the form viewer errors. What is the syntax for executing the cancel command in SCL as opposed to having it driven by a push button control's attribute?

Thanks for your help, as always.

D.
