>>Edward: Thanks for kicking in on this. I didn't make myself very clear, I'm afraid: the LostFocus method kicks in a Save() method that I wrote that invokes TableUpdate, etc. It does not add a new record if a blank one already exists. All of that works great. The problem is the SetFocus() method--I can't get it to set focus on the empty Description cell that has been created if the grid must be scrolled to get to it.

Arnon:

Thanks for the help. I think you are right--I was letting the grid control handle all screen activity. ActivateCell may be the answer.

Again, I appreciate the assist.
