That's a toughy Mike, and I run into that dilemma all the time.. IMO the DBGrid "looks" more windows-like and I use it all the time for simple things like maintenance of lookup-type of tables. However, if I have to display lookup data on the form for each row (like the names of clients or items, or other lookup type of data) I find scrolling regions the way to go. So to me, it's just one question: do I have to display lookups or not. Others might speak to whether the performance is the same on both, I have no clue....

I think I can do it two different ways, ie 1 DB Grid object per table and select the desired columns, vs 1 scrolling region per table and place the columns I want using DB Editobjects on the scrolling regions. Is there a preferred method? Using the Scrolling regions seems to give me more flexibility but might take me longer. Should they both perform equally well? Mike
