>This should be rather simple but I can't figure it out. I have a grid where RecordSource property has a value. Then each column ControlSource has a value (pointing to a field). I need to change the name of the RecordSource (e.g. from "Alias1" to "Alias2"). But when I do it, the values of ControlSource in all columns is blanked. What am I missing?
I think there is a suggestion here using grid builder. Also Dorin V provided a solution a while back, if memory serves. Do a search.
If you try to do this in the properties sheet, it resets it.
BTW, I think I did create a program for safe change and may be posted here.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
