Hello Yousfi,

I think that i solve my problem.

lnrecno = recno()
Select FI
    Locate
    Locate For Alltrim(FI.ref) == '2118661'

    If Found()
      lnrecno = recno() && keep the recno() for my record
      SFT.pageframe1.ActivePage=1
      SFT.pageframe1.Page1.Cont1.grid1.SetFocus() 
go (lnrecno)  && go to my record
    Else
      Messagebox("not found")
    Endif

now that i can set the focus on my desired record.

Many thanks again,
Luis
