>For a simple maintenance form, putting the name of the controlsource in the columns is usually enough. But when there are children in the way, I've found that I have to put the name of the view as recordsource for the whole grid. By doing so you'll kill every grid recordsource and you'll have to redefine them after.

I don't understand your response. There are no children. A single grid... I have tried the grids recordsource and the columns record source with no difference in the grid being/seeming to be disabled.
