the controlsource of the grid.column3.editbox is customer.comments and readonly=.f. i have the fwg in my combobox interactivechange:-

with thisform
.grid1.column1.text1.value=this.list(this.listindex,1)
.grid1.column2.text1.value=this.list(this.listindex,2)
.grid1.column3.edit1.value=this.list(this.listindex,3)
.refresh
endwith

could it be that the SQL doesnot really "open" the memofield since only the word "Memo" is copied to the editbox? tks
