Hi James,

Not that it will cure your problems but just a general thought that had me fidgeting a while back...

When setting properties like DynamicBackColor and DynamicForeColor (any 'Dymnamic' property for that matter) it's important that the CurrentControl of the column actually have that property.

You can get into your kind of problem when assigning say a DynamicForeColor property to a column and a DynamicCurrentControl that will bring up a control without that property. In this case you get similar behaviour from FoxPro as in your case.

Just my 0.1 cents
