Tom,
Combo is in grid itself, true ? Why select extras here ?

    select Extras
    REPLACE extras.Labor WITH This.text
* ???? Isn't labor the controlsource of column ?

    REPLACE extras.Labor WITH This.value
* Text is unformatted and might not be compatible
* ie: text = "heLLo" value = "Hello"
* If style is combo :
this.value = this.displayvalue
this.displayvalue = this.value
* is sometimes a lifesaver

    if seek(extras.labor,"laborate", "labor") && Tag on labor
      REPLACE extras.lab_price WITH laborate.retail, ;
        extras.lab_cost WITH laborate.wholesale
    ELSE
      MessageBox("Sorry - not found.")
    ENDIF

found() inside a grid is dangerous unless workarea alias is included.
