I ran across this problem many times and finally came up with the following solution:
a) somewhere in your form outside of the grid put an edit box. Make it readonly and play with the disabledforecolor property so the contents of the memo field are clearly seen b) put the following code in the afterrowcolchange method of your grid thisform.edit1.Value = cursorname.memofieldname (cursorname is the cursor or table you use in your grid and memofieldname is the name of the memo) You do not need the extra column to show the memo in your grid, since it is only going to show the word memo, confusing, annoying and useless.
