>I have a search form that finds records by QuoteID, Customer Part Number, Project Name, etc.

>I have a dropdown list that the user can use to set the order of the search. The user sees a grid holding the results of a SQL statement that was create in the LOAD event. When the user puts in some characters in the search textbox control, to narrow the search a bit, I re-execute the SQL statement against the same base table called Quotes, and tha search is basd on what was enteresd into the textbox.

Is there something similar to make the data appear in the grid once you've re-executed the query? Do you have to reset the RecordSource? I am thinking that this is the answer to my problem of the blank grid, the RecordSource.

I would save the grid as a class (in designer) and remove it if it exists and then instantiate it after you do a select. That was my standard way to handle a new source for a grid.
