Instead, you will check for arrow keys in Editbox.Keypress event. Surely, you should experiment with grid content to correlate it with actual editbox width.

I'm not sure I can implement this in a non-comic way.

I think I will try to use report nowait command first
and implement save as functionality in some other ways.

I'm intrested has anybody used report nowait? Some time ago
I posted a complicated example of using this it UT and in Compuserver but have'nt got any reply's.

In one message you recommended its use to resolve preview toolbar docking
problem but have you really used it?

Report nowait command is in my users dreams: they want modeless
report windows available in screen. Maybe it requires to make
a global report manager which is called from timer and
enables/disables menus and toolbars according to the foregroud
report. Genrepox does something like this. However, maybe in
next release vfp uses vs common report writer so this work may
be useless. It seems that ms will no longer improve vfp own
report writer.
