>>We are using VisualFoxPro 5.0a and are at the moment creating a Grid. It's working fine. Expect when we select a cell with the mouse this cell changes background to white. If we however use the cursor keys after this the background changes back to blue (just as we wanted).

Hi all - sounds like normal browse behavior...you can keep highlight on mouse click in textbox with: This.Backcolor = This.Selectedbackcolor in Gotfocus, if that's what you're trying to do...
