I think the problem that you are having is that you are using the click event of the textbox in the grid. You should be using the dblclick event. Double clicking on Secretariat will then move the record pointer and do the form you need. The Click event doesn't work because the grid never fires the BeforeRowColChange and AfterRowColChange event and so the pointer is never moved.
