>>>I am developing my first application under visual foxpro 6.0. I usually use clarion under dos. I made a grid control to display a result of SELECT command it works fine. but, it does not allow me to edit any field in the grid control . I made sure that the read only is off and I went all over the step again and again but I could not know what's wrong. can anybody help me to edit to the table directly from the grid control ?
