Hi Mark,

No, you have not missed anything. The datasource property, while not available in the property sheet, is available at runtime. After you create your ADO Recordset, issue code like this:

ThisForm.msflexgrid.Datasource = oRecordset

Good luck!!

Inside VB, one of the properties inherent to both controls is a 'DataSource' which points to the recordset; however, that property doesn't show up inside the VFP property window (or the components native property page).
