Steve, Use the DB Grid with customized options to make the desired column(s) "Read Only", and not the column for history of the incident. In addition, update the R:BASE settings to "Show Hint" for NOTE column. You can further customize the Cell Hint options as follows: R:BASE eXtreme 9.0|Form Designer|Enhanced DB Grid Properties ... Cell Hint [x] Options | Background Color Options | Font (Name, Style, Size, Effects, Color, Script) When using EDIT USING formname WHERE clause ORDER BY clause ... Double-clicking on the NOTE column will open the R:BASE BLOB Editor with Note/VarChar option to update the editable data. After modifying the data, clicking on the [OK] button will save all changes. That should get you started. Very Best R:egards, Razzak.
