Craig:

Setting SCROLLBARS = 3 in the ACTIVATE of the form did it. I had been trying to "bump" the grid with other commands such as changing the size of a column just once, but that didnt help. But the scrollbars command did the trick. Thanks for the help.


>If you can post some code that would reproduce the problem that might prove useful. Just a shot in the dark here, but what happens if you set the grid's scrollbars right after you assign the recordsource to the grid? I'm thinking maybe the scrollbar is just getting confused about how far it is supposed to allow you to scroll to the right and setting the horizontal scrollbar on in code may be a workaround.

>>At first i thought it had something to do w/ the framework i am using. But i added a vanilla VFP grid to the form and set it up like the maxframe grid. It TOO has a problem scrolling to the very far right of the grid. It scrolls to approx column 27. There are 5 more columns that i cannot scroll to, but i can tab to them to see them. And this is a standard vfp grid.

>>If the form displays and i change the column width of one of the fields first before scrolling, and then scroll, i can scroll to the most far right field. Strange.

>>>>When the form displays, i can drag the horizontal scrollbar all the way to the right. Problem is, its not all the way to the right. There are 12 more fields to the right beyond where the scrollbar ends. I can tab across the grid and get to the fields that are beyond the scrollbar's reach, but you'd think the scroll bar would go over to the right to show these same fields. Actually, when i scroll to the right as far as i can, i can see part of another field, but the scrolling stops at that point. Again, i have to use the tab key to get to the other columns.

>>>My wi(l)dest grid has only 17 columns, and the horizontal scrollbar works as advertised. I also set a bunch of properties - column widths set from an .ini file, column order set the same way - near the end of grid's .init(). Also VFP8Sp1, dbfs, w2kSp4.
