>>>Unless you are a masochist you probably don't want to do edits in a grid. There are a lot of events and they are difficult to control. In my opinion you have the right idea to use the grid for selection and then edit in simpler controls (textboxes etc.) on a separate form, or a different part of the same form.

I agree with all of that. It's just that I have never had the feeling I had 100% control of VFP grids. I have written some that seem to "kinda work" but I wouldn't swear on a witness stand that there are no bugs lurking there.

Ideally, of course, there would be no users ;-)
