>>Okay- a new revision to the problem. What I was trying the first time was working- I just didn't notice because of this: the top record in the _grid_ was being preserved... not the one with a highlighted field. When I tab back and forth, the top record stays put, the rest of them get re-ordered around. I see two possible ways out- either make sure that only the top record gets highlighted by making the grid scroll with each up and down movement of the cursor (I haven't a clue how to go about this) or, each time the user tabs back and forth, before re-ordering, re-orient the grid to put the highlighted record on top. Any clues on how to go about this?

Are you saying that simply tabbing down to a record in the grid doesn't move the record pointer? I didn't think this was the case. Tabbing has always been enough for me to select a record when using a grid as a selector. Maybe I'm not understanding your suggestion. Please be patient, and thanks for your help.
