>When you have grid on the form and you programmatically search for a record, then refresh the grid. The active record is displayed in the middle of the grid. Which I like, but my customer wants the active record to be displayed on the first row of the grid. How do I do this?

Robert,
1) You need relativerow property so grid should have focus.
2) You mimic scroll with doscroll().

* Lostfocus of search textbox
* If directly in grid (ie:inGrid class)
* no need for setfocus
thisform.lockscreen = .t.  && If want to hide scroll animation
with ThisForm.Grid1
	.setfocus  && Needed for relativerow
	do while .relativerow # 1 && Hit top row ?
		.doscroll(1) && Scroll down
	enddo
endwith	
ThisForm.Text2.setfocus && Get focus back to somewhere outside grid
thisform.lockscreen = .f.

Notice we always rely on the fact that a search in grid returns with a relativerow >= 1 and don't check if we should scroll up.
