>>Hi,
>>
>>I added a memo field to a grid. The grid is initialized on-the-fly based on values in a resource file. The problem I have is that only first 10 characters of the memo field are showing in the grid column. I did remove object Test1 and replaced it with EDITBOX. And the width of this column is wide enough to show the content of the memo. And I see the EditBox with a vertical scroll bar. And I know that the cursor does have the memo field with entry longer than 10 characters.

And if a column right before the Memo field column has 10 characters in length, the Memo field column is limited to show only first 10 characters of the Memo field. I tried to change the columns around and it does not matter. If the field in the column before the Memo column is 2 char length, memo field is only showing 2 characters. The only way I can make the memo showing completely if the field of the column right before the Memo column is a numeric type.

Hi Dmitry,

I think you need to assign ControlSource first, then play with the rest of the logic to add an EditBox.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
