Michel, actually (sorry Jim),

If you are using VFP 6, then the new AMOUSEOBJ() function should be useful here.

Good luck,

>You can use MCOL() and MROW() to get the relative position of the textbox in form coordinates. The position returned is, I believe, as if the textbox were in the first row of the grid. If it is in a subordinate row, then you will have to adjust the position. Once you have the textbox position on the form, then you should be able to use addobject to impose another control on top of the grid textbox.
