Try Column.Bound = .F. and Column.Sparse = .F.

>>>Hi,
>>>
>>>I placed a textbox inside a grid column, deleting the previously existing textbox. The new textbox is a subclass of a Codemine class which translates the table.field contents from a decimal time to an hour:minutes format.
>>>
>>>I verified that the mechanism correctly places the expected value in textbox.value, but the grid does not show the textbox.value, but rather the column.controlsource's value. If I make column.controlsource = table.field then the decimal value is presented to user, naturally. If I leave the column.controlsource blank, hoping that VFP would use textbox.value, then the first column of the table is shown.
>>>
>>>Any suggestions?

>>>TIA,

>>Use the function for column's controlsource, e.g.
>>
>>column.ControlSource = '=thisform.Translate(myTable.myField)' or just a function here.
