>I would like to use a grid to display records (rows) and fields (columns) like the fp browse command. The catch is that I would like to have a pointer to select a row (click) and then use that record to further process like in a detail view form.

You have to use an event in the grid.Column.Textbox - I recommend DblClick rather than Click because that indicates a more determininate action.

>I am using a grid now, but I don't get a mouse pointer. Its like I'am in the column with a |(similiar character) showing. Its hard to point and click for the user.

Set the MousePointer property of the grid.column.textbox.

Check here on the UT in the Files section.

>As above; but would allow multiple rows to be selected and then process a final or done click.

Include a logical column in the grid's record source and let the user check it off for the records they want to view, then click a button outside the grid to call the detail form.

>Also, any easier lookup controls (vfp combo box/list box) ie look up a code and display a description in the field? Any better combo box / list box wizards? etc.
