Hi Mark,

The workaround i've found to prevent a grid from losing it's design properties when the recordsource is changed programatically, is reseting first the recordsource property:

* Always before changing recordsource on a grid
THISFORM.MyGrid.RecordSource = ""
* Then assign your new source of data.
* If you have a SQL-Query into Cursor that changes the content
* of the data in the grid, no matter if (the cursor) have the
* same name it has before, here is where to place it. (After * reseting Recordsource)
THISFORM.MyGrid.RecordSource = "MySource"
* And refresh it
THISFORM.MyGrid.Refresh()

HTH,
