Sorry,
Yes I did change the widths from default (in the Form Designer, not code).

Mark

>>I create a form with a table in the DE.
>>I add a grid to the form and set the RecordSource to the table.
>>I specify a ColumnCount for the columns I want (3 or 4, etc..).
>>I set the ControlSource of each column to different field names.
>>
>>When running the form, all column widths are resized to what looks like default widths! Everything is very simple - no subclassed controls, no views, no method codes, etc...

>You say the column widths are 'resized' to default widths, but you don't mention that you ever changed them from default widths ... did you just not mention that you did change their widths? i.e. why do you expect them not to be default width ...
