Thanks Dave... I like your answers...
You are helping me move from a Clipper (dos) coder to a vfp coder.

>>if you're desparate (or insane), get the dbgrid control from vb.
Does "vb" stand for visual basic?


>>much weaker, but doesn't show the bar until it needs to (just one of its >>many problems...)
By "just one of its many problems", are you tallking about vfp50?
