Hi all;
I'll probably bombard this group with some newbie questions... And
thanks to all.

I have created an object that contains a cbo and a text box. The cbo
is to get an acct#, and then it should display the company name in the
text box.

I am not sure how I reference the value of the textbox object within
the class.
Right now, I have added a property called cname to the FORM and I am
doing thisform.cname=customer.name, but this is not good oop practice.

I don't think it sould be this.parent.txtName1.value=customer.name

I hope I make sense...

Thanks,

AK

this.parent.controlname.property is exactly the right way.

Or, make setting the value a property of the container, and pass it the
value: this.parent.SetName("Company name") and let the container put the
name wherever it sees fit.

I would go with
thisform.controlname.property
as it covers both having and not having a container between the input
control and the form.
