>I have the need to show more characters in grid than I can fit on one line. Is there a way to use a edit box or list box instead of a text box. My goal is to show multiple lines per record in a grid.

Jeff, yes, you can place any control into the grid column. You may also create a container with necessary controls and drop it into the column.
You have to edit your grid, then drag and drop control from the Form Controls toolbar, (not from Project Manager) to the desired column. Then you set the column.CurrentControl to control of your choice. You should also set Column.Sparse = .F. so your control is visible in all records, not just current one.
You may remove the default textbox from the column by selecting it in the Property sheet, then click on the Form Designer title bar and press Delete key.
