>In my dbf table, I have a general field type containing word document. When I do a SELECT on the table, and after do a browse on result cursor, I can see the document in a window when double-clicking on the general field. But that does not work (no window open to show me the document, in other words nothing happen at all) when I do that in a grid populated with my cursor as recordsource. Why?

Who knows how did you define the grid, grid columns, and column controls?
Probably you do not use the proper control in the appropriate Grid column. It should be olebound control.
