You could also keep the Grid ReadOnly full time, and use it like a list box (maybe?) to scroll the table(s) and only add or edit rows through txtboxes?
I've heard some PMs say never enter directly to a grid, while others say no problem. Go Figure:)
>>is it posible to Make Grid add only ie cannot edit exiting records ?
