>>>I have a form that is a gateway to another form. The form has a grid of repairs and when I choose a repair, I can click a button to get the other form with the details. It's this repair form I was working on. I have done _nothing_ to the base form except run it. Absolutely no changes have been made to this form. It was running fine, showing the repairs and I used it to get to the repairs form several times.

>>>Then, out of the blue, the base form stopped working! The grid is visibly empty. The view it is based on has plenty of records. I can see them if I browse. If I click around on the grid, the status bar tells me I'm changing records in the correct view. But the data isn't showing up in the grid!

So, it's just Grid.Refresh after Requery("View")? I know that some guys will not be happy with my reply, but you could try to restore Grid.RecordSource and other settings.
