Hi Robin,

Have you tried the code that Cetin gave you? The objtoclient will return a 0 for the Left of any columns that are no longer visible because the user scrolled the horizontal scrollbar or tabbed over to the right. Cetin appears to have a pretty good grasp of what you asked for.

>>>If I have a grid with several columns locked, is it possible work out what the first visible column on the right of the split is?
