Thanks. hi Bryan, I'm afraid there's no such "native" control in the Win32 environment. my best guess is to use a multicolumn ListView, with a DialogBox to edit an entry's fields... another chance would be that I write a custom control in VC++, but you need a huge amount of patience :-) there's also a very remote possibility that I'll look into integrating ActiveX controls (eg. VisualBasic's ones); but as of now, it is beyond my horizon. bye, Aldo Calpini [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Mike, Where's your GridLayout module?
