Hi Erik,

I know that you can not reference controls in the load that is why I open the tables there.

If you follow the steps I posted yesterday you should be able to reproduce the same error.

1) Create a form class based on form with a grid on it.
2) create a form based on your form class.
3) open a table in the load method. ( USE sometable IN 0 )
4) set the grid RecordSource("sometable") and
column ControlSource ("sometable.field").
5) run form

Then take out the use command in the load and open the table in the Data Environment and it should work fine. I think this is a bug.

Thanks.
