Destroying all the variables after from is closed

gharish

I have created a form, I want to destroy all fields and its associated variables once my form is closed.

    Hi,

    First realise that only the form structure needs to be global, all the fields and variables used in building a form can be local and therefore would not need to be destroyed once the form has been built.  There are probably some good examples in Solution Article 20159302 and almost certainly some good examples in Solution Article 11773970

    Once you have just one form variable, you can destroy it by setting it to the special symbol 'unbound which will allow the symbol and the form data structure to be garbage collected and freed for something else to use.  E.g. if the form variable was CCSmyForm, you might do this:

    CCSmyForm = 'unbound

    It is best to make sure that the form is not being displayed anywhere first!!  Hopefully this answers your question.

    Best regards,

    Lawrence.
