Clark,

I'm doing fine, working on contract down here in Austin for a few months.

I'm not sure you'll be able to get exactly what you want. Even with using DynamicControl a grid only has a single RowHeight that is used for all rows. So all rows would be 2 high to be able to see the controls, and you might as well use just a container of controls then.

If it's a display only grid you could maybe use a cursor that has "different" kinds of rows. There maybe some other third party grid ActiveX controls that can have variable height rows.

>Actually I thought about dynamic properties but I was thinking too complex trying to do too much at one time. Using a combination of the container as David suggested and DynamicCurrentControl as you suggest shoud allow me to accomplish the task I set uot to do.
