Raymond, try this:

PROCEDURE MyGrid.Init
IF NOT USED('mytable')
USE mytable IN 0
ENDIF

WITH THIS
.RecordSource = 'mytable'
.Column1.ControlSource = 'mytable.field1'
.Column2.ControlSource = 'mytable.field2'
ENDWITH

SELECT mytable

ENDPROC

Sometimes (yes, it's weird and unpredictable), the grid object is build before the Load event; so if you want to play safe, either use DataEnvironment or write the grid properties on Init right after you open the table.
