Thanks, Ed. I created the grid from the forms toolbar; thought "rightclick on the grid, edit, rightclick on the column, properties" would take me where I wanted to go. I guess I'm getting into some more complicated devices than I anticipated and need to do some MSDN research.

Again, thanks for taking time out for me on a Saturday afternoon. Hope your weekend feels long! BTW, what is RTFM?
