I always use an Alias for the grid's RecordSource and Alias.FieldName for the grid's controls.

I did use Safe select approach with the CA. The grid's RecordSource was a cursor created in the Load method of the form. I then used CA for the search and even re-builded its SelectCmd. But since the grid's RecordSource was a different cursor, manipulations with the CA didn't affect it at all.
