>>Most Frequently Asked Questions List

Q1. My grid looses its custom settings when I change the underlying record source.
A1. Change the recordsource property to '' BEFORE making any changes to the underlying table. Change it back once you are done changing the underlying table. This includes almost any table manipulation that you do, zapping the table, packing it, re-issueing your select statement, requerying a view, etc.

Q2. Is this the last version of VFP?
A2. Nope! MS folks are demoing VFP7.0 now. It looks like the future is strong and most of VFP's power will remain in the power of its OO language and the speed of its rushmore database.

Q3. How do you add a control other than the standard text box to a grid column?
A3. Edit the grid. Choose the control you want from the control bar. Click inside the column you want to place the grid. Change the columns current control to the new control you just added.

Your turn? :)
