Re: Paradox 11 Title Bar 8.3 Naming Convention

Ike,

Why would you want to go through all of this? Is it because you need the 
form's filename and path? There is a simpler solution for that; use the 
form's fileName() method (see Opal help: form type). A simple

method pushButton(var eventInfo Event)
    msgInfo("Debug", getFileName())
endMethod

will get you the entire filename. If you need to, you can then use 
setTitle, to set the form's title to the filename.
