I have modified the Ingrid control to handle numeric, date, and datetime data. I also added the ability to use the down arrow key to find subsequent matches when using the control in locate mode. I also have a sub-class of the control that seeks in a character index from a numeric column. If you are interested, I can send you the code.

>Recently there was a thread on searching in grids. Most replies point one in the direction of "ingrid" a VCX that is in the public domain. I don't use ingrid, but the concepts are similar. I can do the text searching just fine for text columns, but am having difficulty with numbers and dates. The indexes for these columns are text so I know I've probably got to do some datatype converting....but any ideas on this would be appreciated.
