>>>We are trying to create a grid from a table which is created dynamically based on a user selection. Everytime we set the recordsource property of the grid to this table, we lose all previously set properties of the columns. All coulmns appear resized and difficult to read unless manually re-adjusted. Without going through storing previous properties to arrays and then restoring them, is there another easier way to restore properties??? The field names for the table created will always be the same.

You need to use .RecordSource = SPACE(0)
Don't use "".

This has been a long known issue with VFP grids and searching through long past messages here will find much to say regarding this issue and ways around it.
