Good point Richard... 8-) FWIW was "redefining" the grid because I do not create the cursor for the grid until the init of the form. Had worked before so I saw no reason to change per se...
How bizarre, turns out (final proof pending) that I had moved a column, using the mouse, to the far right and then deleted it by reducing the number of columns in the layout section.. As I had mentioned the first few columns were just fine at about the fourth column (where the moved column was) column width abruptly changed to 1. Followed Mr. Croziers advice, Mr. Pearson's no joy. Deleted the original grid, recreated a new and now have four good columns, no issues, same code (with fewer columns). So my thinking is that removing the column the way I did caused the problems? Analysis paralysis perhaps?
