Well, I found him by searching for his name on Yahoo! Hey, whatever works :)

But his grid class leaves one column a different color that the others on the selected record too... I guess the reasoning for using the shape object is purely speed related, but the interface is the same.

(shouting) Dave?? you out there??? Can you help me out here??

:)

Thanks James
