Ok, I'm going to put the resizing issue aside for the time being. I only have a few controls that get effected and the grid.resize does work.(don't like it but..) I have to address adding images to a container in a grid from a memo field with saved .jpg images. Obviously (i think) I have to trigger to grid, to trigger the container to assign the memo field to the image.PictureVal property. While I can think of a few ideas, I'd prefer to find out the best proven way.

thanks,
Bill
