Hi Jimmy.

>> This is what I am asking. If the combo displays the data for that column, shouldn't I be able to get the value that exists in the combo the second the row becomes active but before the value changes? <<

Memory variable are scoped to the current method. If you have variables that you want accessible to other objects, you need to make them form properties. If you want them visible to different methods in the same object, you need them to be properties of the object.

Try this in the grid's AfterRowColChange:

WAIT WINDOW MyTable.MyField

MyTable is the alias used as the grid's record Source and MyField is the name of the field displayed in Column1 of the grid.

Or try this in the combo's GotFocus:

WAIT WINDOW This.Value
