Hi Jim,

The control is a combo filled via a SQL statement into a cursor. I collect the part# for the combo, partdesc for another column in the grid and the partprice for another column. The lost focus of the combo assigns values to the respective columns of the grid. I'm collecting the price column value on the gotfocus of the combo and save it to an invisible textbox on the form. I then use it as a pre-edit - post-edit for a running subtotal textbox. If I don't save the current partprice value at the got focus of the combo the lostfocus overwrites the price with the lookup price, which I want it to.

The problem is, if I have 2 or more rows of data and I wish to edit the first row of the grid, the got focus: oldvalue = thisform.grid1.column9.text1.value is being taken from the last row of data and not the current row or record. which throws off the running total. Seems it should be pretty straight forward.
