To save various user settings you can untilize a "RESOURCE" table loosely structured as follows:

USERID C
FORMID C
FORMTOP I
FORMLEFT I
FORMWIDTH I
FORMHEIGHT I
GRIDARRAY M

In your base form class add code to the DESTROY event which captures the above settings. Define an array to hold grid settings. By drilling down the containership hierarchy locate each grid and create an array row. Each row could be structured as follows:

grid reference ( thisform.container1.container2.grid1 ) hint ( sys(1272) )
columnstring C1,O99,W999;C2,O99,W999...

After saving the grid data to the array, store the array to the Memo field.

Add code to the INIT event of your base form class to attempt to retrieve a record from the "RESOURCE" file and if found apply the saved info.
