>Thanks for the info on my objects being reset after resetting the recordsource, I thought I was going crazy. Question: I made a class based on the original grid and placed that on the form. When I try to manually set the objects in the init of the grid class, I get a source not found error. I made sure my controlbound property was set to .f. before trying to set it manually. Should I be resetting all these properties someplace other than the init of the grid class?

For me, there is a bwtable.zip (Browse Table for current directory)

At Init, It will Remove all textbox and Re-Add with My pre-defined class.
Even Header you can remove-n-readd but there is NO Visual Class for header, you need to write a header class define in a .prg and
Set Procedure To myLibs.prg Additively

For grid setting, you can set any grid setting after the .columncount = -1
(the reset line...)

Benefit:
- You can add your favour class in grid.
e.g. use file section txtdate for date field in grid...
- Fix the IME problem (a known bug VFP5 but fixed already in VFP6)
on any text field, IME input window will automatically come up.

For your cases, maybe a bug for CreateObject(),
you need first Select the Recordsource area Before reset the grid!
Otherwise, it prompt out a openfile dialog box and ask for work area... ~_~

i.e.

Select nextGridRs
Thisform.grid1.columncount = -1
THisform.grid1.recordsource = "nextGridRs"
Thisform.grid1.init()
