BTW, Marty, that is not a kludge. Took me a while to ferret it out the first time I needed it, but check out bottom of page 292 in the VFP 5 Developer's Guide.

>Get ready for a kluge. Select the control you want to delete from the combo box at the top of the properties dialog. Now, click the grid ONCE to give it focus. Now press the DELETE key. That's how I do it. I don't know if there is a better way or not.

>>PMFJI, but since we're on the subject I've always wondered how you remove an unwanted control after you've added the one you want. Say you start with a text box in a column, then add a combo box. I've never been able to find a way to delete the text box. Do you know of a way to do this?
