I am new to VFP and am attempting to write a timekeeping program. The requirement is to have all entered records for the pay period on the screen at once (so I use a grid on a form) and to be able to input data directly into the cells(right word?) or to be able to press a trigger of some sort (I used double click) to display only valid values from a reference table (free table) or a table from another database for each cell(?) I can get this to work for the first 5 cells(?), but when I add the double click method to the 6th cell and run the form, I get the message "Too many files open". To confuse me futher, when I click on help, which is supposed to (as I understand it) give me help re: my error message. I get a completely different error. This error says something about I am trying to pass something invalid between methods. Is there a better way to achieve what I am trying to do or Iam I on the path I want to follow and need a little help to get past this roadblock. If I need a little help, can you point me in the right direction?
