It's still not great, especially as regards the Grid control. However, keep in mind that every class in VFP (this is generally true of OOP) has properties, events, and methods - the specific PEMs are attached by hyperlink in the Help file. Is your question about a specific PEM for the grid (or something the grid contains), or about the concept of containership itself?

The VFP documentation really doesn't describe the *concepts* of writing a VFP application, and when they do, the advice is not really usable, and often wrong. For that, third party manuals and these forums are a better bet.

>No, the Help does not give the answers required. It is, in fact, nowhere in the docs that I have found!

Unfortunately, the most help that the printed documentation will give you is for somewhat educated users that want to use Builders - we use no Builders at all, just a combination of visual and non-visual programming.

The Help file is *very* hyperlinked.
