Hi Frank,

>is there a way to total a column when using grid controls, if not, recommendations?

I would suggest using your data instead of the control that displays your data.

Put a text box under your grid, in the refresh put:

This.Value = SUM(myTable.myField) &&or whatever the sysntax for sum() is

Then just refresh the textbox in your afterrowcolchange or wherever else you see fit.
