Thanks for your prompt reply.

I tried it out but it didn't seem to work.

in the writebuffer method
*-- some code here
if upper(thisform.activecontrol.baseclass) = "GRID"
ogrid=thisform.ActiveControl
ogrid.setfocus()
*ogrid.activatecell(ogrid.activerow,ogrid.activecolumn)
*-- tried both the above statements but no luck
else
*-- some code here
endif
*-- some code here
