I have a FPW 2.6 project that I converted to VFP6 (using VFP conversion tool).

That is a great idea if you haven't had enough aggravation during the week < s >.

On one form I added a grid object, defining all the columns, their sources etc. None of the grid columns have their Read-Only property set. The grid's RecordSourceType is Alias, the RecordSource is the name of a table used in this form. Yet when I run the program the grid will not allow any editing. If I try typing into any of the text boxes, a message appears on status line "The record is read-only."

Are all the column ControlSources qualified by the alias of the grid's RecordSource? If they are not, this will make the column ReadOnly. If you qualify the column controlSources with the grid's RecordSource, the problem will go away.
