>>>I have an editbox class that in gotfocus expands limited to its parent.container and shrinks to one line height in lostfocus. Here is the gotfocus code :
>>>
WITH this
>>> thisform.lockscreen = .t.
>>> IF !.readonly or ;
>>> ( !isnull(evaluate(.controlsource)) and ;
>>> !empty(evaluate(.controlsource)) )
>>> if .parent.baseclass="Column"
>>> .parent.parent.scrollbars = 0
>>> .parent.parent.rowheight = .ExpandedHeight
>>> .parent.width = .ExpandedWidth
>>> else
>>> .height = .ExpandedHeight
>>> .width = .ExpandedWidth
>>> .zorder(0)
>>> endif
>>> ENDIF
>>> thisform.lockscreen = .f.
>>>ENDWITH
Expanded* props are set in init. When dropped to grid and sparse=.f., works good (err nearly, otherwise no problem).
>>>
>>>If tab is used to move to field or relativerow#1 and clicked no problem, it works as intended :)
>>>
>>>The problem is :
>>>When user (me now) clicks on memofield and grid.relativerow=1, grid.rowheight changes but not column width :(
>>>
>>>Any ideas what's happening when relativerow=1 and clicked (I want to drop extra workaround code in click). MTIA.

You could try two more common VFP workarounds:
1. Add Wait Window "" TIMEOUT 0.1 after changing the width
or
2. Fire all GotFocus code from one-time Timer.
