>#CONTROL(MyDropList, 'My Droplist
Control'),MULTI,REQ(MyExtensionTemplate),Primary('MainFile')
>#Declare(%MyFile)
>#Prepare
>    #SET(%MyFile,  [the %Primary of the updateform]   )
>#EndPrepare
>#PROMPT('MyField:',FIELD(%MYFILE)),%MyField

Haven't tried it but something like should work:

#PREPARE
  #SELECT(%Primary,%ActiveTemplateParentInstance)
#ENDPREPARE
#PROMPT('My field',FIELD(%Primary)),%MyField
