>>Actually, that is different than my experience. I didn't get the dynamic behavior until I added the = sign in front of the expression in quotes. My expression is a UDF however because I didn't want to have a quadruply nested if statement in a property of the class designer window form maintenance sake. Maybe that makes a difference.

Well,
I couldn't yet succeed to produce a difference between writing thisform.myudf() or ="thisform.myudf()". As long as the datatype is what dynamic* expects (ie:dynamicbackcolor expect a numeric, dynamiccurrentcontrol char, dynamicfontbold logical etc). If you're not using PEM sheet but doing it programmatically in a method (ie:init) then sure it would be :
thisform.mygrid.dynamicfontbold = "thisform.myudf()"
