I added this method to my base grid class. If you wanted a curretColumn property, you could add one, and put this code in the Access event.

lnActiveColumn = THIS.ActiveColumn
LOCAL lnActiveColumn, loActiveColumn, loColumn

IF lnActiveColumn = 0
	RETURN .NULL.
ENDIF

FOR EACH loColumn IN THIS.Columns
	IF loColumn.ColumnOrder = lnActiveColumn
		loActiveColumn = loColumn
		EXIT
	ENDIF
ENDFOR

RETURN loActiveColumn
