Macro substitution &(...)

Environment:
Fedora 8: Linux 2.6.23.1-42
xbuilder-1.00.00-1.demo.gcc410
gcc-4.1.2-33

This line draws a compile error in xbuilder:

replace all &(mfld) with &(mparms)

mfld and mparms are both declared PUBLIC.

Help! What am I not understanding here?

field variables must be aliased to assign a value

So right away...

If that does not work, you probably need to tell us the values of
mfld and mparms just as the error occurs.

Same as in Clipper.

REPLACE &(mfld) WITH &(mparms) ALL
