Tore, Mike, Naomi,

I used the "safe select" way. The grid does not reconstruct alright. But the problem now is, while the CA and the temp cursor does have the correct data like so:

myCA.CursorFill()
SELECT Tempcursor    && where Tempcursor is the 'permanent' RecordSource of myGrid
ZAP
APPEND FROM DBF( myCA.Alias )
myGrid.Refresh()
myGrid.SetFocus()

myGrid does not show the records! Only after I press say Up or Down key do they show up.

What gives now?
