The container object I have contains three text boxes and the grid column is bound to a CHAR field of a table that is a concatenation of three separate strings. An example is "AAC|BIL|CLN" What I am trying to do is to put the three strings into the text box of the container. Is this possible? Thanks.

Kim,
It's possible to have a container in grid column. What is hard is to make it behave as you want at times. If the textboxes inside the container doesn't have a controlsource you'll see that as one textbox is changed in a row, it changes in all rows. However if you bind them to controlsources then works as expected. At least you could create a dummy cursor and bind their controlsources to cursor's fields.
I suggest whatever type container is you're going to put there make it a class. Because it's hard to change something in container once it's put in a column (I mean it's harder to reach to PEM as hierarchy level gets deeper).
