Hi Tracy,
I solved your task with the customized version of Grid Highlighter. Catch e-mail.
>I would appreciate if anyone willing to test this would. Watch the 3rd column highlighting in the code below. On my system, in both VFP8 and VFP9, on Windows XP when there is a special color in the background (as in row 1, column2) the 3rd column is not highlighted. Yet it should be. On the row where there is no special background color, the 3rd column highlights correctly. For example, in the test code below, run it and then use the down arrow to move through rows. The 3rd column only highlights correctly when the cursor is in the 3rd row where there is no special background color in the 2nd column. When there is a special background color, the background color should show, not the highlight and that part is working correctly in all rows. Are you seeing the same thing?
