Desmond: I have had grid issues in the past with VFP6 SP5. One of the work arounds for this I found is to remove the controlsource from the grid before you close the form. Then exit the form and when you re-enter the form all should be 'normal'. I now build grids dynamically when a form is entered. This save lost of work in that the columns and fields are defined on the fly.

Have a form that calls another form... The "final" form presents a grid from which the user is supposed to pick the desired item. I defined the grid in the form designer, named it etc. defined the data sources by field name... Works like a champ the first time in the form, however if I exit and try o go back the grid loses all of it's properties and suddenly contains all the fields (versus those designed into the grid). Have tried defining the data sources "on the fly" in the init of the form and once again the first time in works fine, second time it blows up saying that it can]'t find the property names associated with the original grid??? Does that make any sense at all... Have you guys seen this before?
