Greetings John!

"That's a problem with VFP. The items are selected but lose their selected appearence when the list is messed with. There is a KB article about this on the MS website."

Alas, I'm not a Premier Universal Thread member (yet) so I couldn't follow your autolink. Could you post the entire URL of the article?

I sure hope there's some sort of workaround for this -- otherwise it's back to the drawing board.

Cheers, Harry
