>I swear to God, I'd have better luck finding out what really happened at Roswell than in getting help on using the ActiveX controls that come with VFP 5.0a. Has anyone out there successfully used the MS DBGrid, MS FlexGrid, MS DBCombo, or MS DBListbox ActiveX controls. I can easily drop them on my forms but I can't for the life of me find the bloody RowSource and DataSource properties despite what the Help file says! Help please, I'm tired of authoring maintenace apps for some small tables and I'd love to use the type of Controls used by the Contact Manager in MS Schedule + (no 'freakin buttons, just EDIT it, or use the right click for additions, deletions, etc.)!

Bob, Usually an OCX has a separate property sheet for its own properties. Right click and look for a listing on the popup menu for (OCX) properties, where (OCX) is the actual name. These will be organized into the standard TAB format, which makes it MUCH easier to get all the data entered.
