Using current fields in PRG Procedure files dBASE 2.5

| I need to use lots of current fields in a PRG file. The changed fields are satisfactorily saved and updated on the WFM Form. However the fields in the SET PROCEDURE TO PRG file do not update unless I close the WFM file and reload the WFM file.
The only way I have found to immediately update the PRG fields is to Declare a PUBLIC memory variable for the necessary fields in the WFM file and assign the current WFM field value to the corresponding memory variable for use in the PRG file. I guess it
would also work to Declare a Public Array to include the WFM fields and transfer them to the PRG file from the Array.
There must be an easier way to immediately update fields in PRG files.
Sorry for my frequent questions but I would appreciate any comments in this regard.
Thanks, Norman

Dan, ( I accidently posted an incomplete message. Complete message follows:)
I tried form.rowset.refresh() in the WFM form just before branching to the PRG file. It did not update the field in the PRG file and the form.rowset.refresh() code if placed directly in the RG file causes an error message.
Thanks for your interest and comment.
