Malcolm,

Thank you for your suggestion.

The transparent shape over the header is a good idea but it could be a problem with resizing the form/grid and the sizing the header down to zero size would be a better option. I could then put the column literals above the grid as label objects.

However, you would think that VFP would have a way of stopping the default clicking of the header if the grid was really supposed to act as a listbox. Let's face it, the listbox object doesn't support this behaviour!

Perhaps somebody else has worked out how to circumvent this problem?
