Hi Peter

>My legs are an integral part of my body. Think of the grid as an integral part of that form. Get/set its properties in the form's release() method (or my favorite: QueryUnload) and don't bother about it too much. At the time you remove or rename the grid or one its columns and run the form, you'll be warned by an error message and need only change some code in the release method.

Thanks so I was not the only one who observed this. I will keep the QueryUnLoad() in mind thanks.
