 [form.][ctlname.]Parent
 
 Usage Notes
   ■ Use the Parent property to access properties, methods, or controls of
     a control's container form. For example:
 
         MyButton.Parent.MousePointer = 4
 
     See: ◄Parent and Child Relationships►
 
   ■ The Parent property is useful in an application in which you pass
     controls as parameters. For example, you might pass a control variable
     to a general procedure in a module, and use the Parent property to
     access its container form.
