I have some other forms in the application with grids and there it works as it is should; that is, you can click in a cell but not change anything. And I don't use AllowCellSelection in other forms. It must be something I am missing in my form. I will keep checking and testing.

So if Column.ReadOnly is the setting that actually controls this, then what exactly is the purpose/use of Grid.ReadOnly? It seems that the COLUMN is is control of this, right?
