I now have the grid with my container object added to the column. This displays fine with the default container object appearing for each record in the recordsource cursor.

But now I dont know how to set the properties of the container's objects. I can call a routine using one of the column's DYNAMIC properties but I dont see how to then access the container object for that grid row in order to set it's particular properties according to the data in the grids recordsource.

Any guidance?

TIA

The grid will resize as the form is re-sized and this this is working. Now I want to display images in a vertical and scrollable region on the right side for the form. What can I use or do to create this region which will allow independent vertical scrolling seperate from the grid or other form controls?

The captions for these text fields must contain the contents of 2 database fields. How to set the caption for each text field for each record in the grid?
