calling a form as a function

[biot023]

I seem to remember seeing somewhere that this could be done, but I'm damn'ed if I can remember where or how.
What I need to do is use a form to return a value (in this case a form that selects a date from a range of values).
I guess I could write functions for the date form to communicate its results, but I'd be IFing & ELSEing everywhere & wondered if there wasn't somethign a little more elegant.

As ever, any help appreciated.

Exactly what are you trying to do? Pass a value between forms?

The neatest way to do it is to declare a new public property on the form that needs to have it passed to and a the property is set by an action on the other form.

Propeties is one thing I haven't yet had a look at.
One thing amongst a multitude...
D'you know where there are any tutorials that deal with public & private properties?

Any help appreciated
