Dave,

Sorry, I reread your post, and I was off on two things (at least)

It would be ThisForm.myGrid.recordSource first off (oops)

And Since you want to build the cursor in the Form.Load,

Then set the parameter argument to a custom property so its visible in the form:

Form.init:
LPARAMETER tc_cursorProp
Thisform.cursorProp = tc_cursorProp

Form.load


*Buld cursor here using the ThisForm.cursorProp Argument

*Now bind it
ThisForm.myGrid.recordSource = cursorName

Sorry about that, long day.
