I can believe it!
>> have spent some time on when the grid is the entire table, but have spent most my time on when the grid shows only a subset of records. have found parent/child grid relationships (grid data properties of linkmaster, relationship expression) a nightmare. many at ut (universal thread) say to use a parameterized view

so without wanting you (or anyone else) to write a book about it. What is it about grids that is causing such difficulties? The good ole browse command seems far more robust although, obviously, it lacks the advantages of being an 'object'... how is it that the Fox team have given us such an obviously problematic 'substitute'?

ah well, there ya go. My most recent attempt was trying to do precisely that.
thisform.pgfrelated.page1.click()
thisform.pgfrelated.page1.setfocus()
thisform.pgfrelated.page2.click()
thisform.pgfrelated.page2.setfocus()

there are threads on ut that address this. if i recall, you can set a switch in valid and then based on the switch, maybe set focus in lost focus? i do not have my notes with me now. send a message if you need any help from a person who is also stumbling through it.
