Hi!

There are more tricky and simple way for case INLIST(this.recordsourcetype,3,4). In Init method of grid you can extract alias from control source of columns, they're ALWAYS 'alias.field'-like.

>For example something like
>EVAL(IIF(this.recordsourcetype = 4, "'" + SUBSTR(this.recordsource, RAT(" ", this.recordsource) + 1) + "'", this.recordsource))
>goes instead this.recordsource...
>:)
>(assuming that "...INTO CURSOR ZZZ" is at the end of SELECT statement and probably nobody uses RecordSourceTypes 2 and 3 anyway :)
