Here's my object hierarchy:

frsPurchase1 (formset)
Purchase ( form)
PageFrame1 (page frame)
Page1 (page that grid is on)

Page1's ActivateEvent shows as [Default], BUT cannot be modifed.
The only objects that can have their ActivateEvent modified are the frsPurchase1 (currently [Default]), and Purchase (where I put the code from your prior message).

I'm going to see if there is some other Page1 event where I can stick this latest code you gave me...

Update: actually it looks like NONE of Page1's properties can be changed from their defaults. e.g. It will not even allow me to change Page1's Caption... Maybe because a page frame is being used all rules go out the window?
