You know, I got image.mousedown firing. What is your grid.recordsource ?

>Add a grid. Remove the text box from column1 and replace with an image. Assign a picture to the image. Add mouseup/down event code to both the grid and the image. (I put in Thisform.caption = Thisform.caption + "*"). Now, run the form. Click on a cell (other than the one you are on). The code does NOT run. Go to the debugger and turn event tracing on to track mouseup/down. Click on some more cells. You will see that the grid mouse events fire, but not the image mouse events. (If anybody can't reproduce this, please let me know.)

>>>OK, good advice. But, then my question becomes: what happens to my mouse click as I click from cell to cell? Am I to assume that the user can click the mouse and there will not be a mouseclick event generated? That sounds pretty bogus to me!
