Problems with grids after updating or changing a datasource convinced me to save my grids as classes and remove them prior to datasource work and then reinstantiate them when done. No more problems.

>At this point there are no records displayed in the grid. The cursor has the expected number of records. If I press a navigation button the grid displays the correct recordset.
