Hi Mark,

Thanks for responding to me so quickly.

That's exactly where I was when I decided to ask my question. I've used the mousemove and timer while building button classes, so I am somewhat familiar with this event, but I can't get it to work correctly in this situation. As you said, the checkbox control flickers as it switches between values while mousemove code fires. Also I can't get more than one row of the grid to even do this.

Thanks.


John
