I have a form with a grid. The grid's source is a curso r (SEARCHCAT). When I start the form in the load event I have the statement
SELECT * FROM CATALOG INTO CURSOR SEARCHCAT and the grid shows all the items in the catalog unfiltered ok.

The problem arises when the form is used to get the catalog item search criteria (item category, group and type) to filter the catalog.

At the end I do another SELECT ....INTO CURSOR SEARCHCAT. When that happens the grid's objects are released and I get a blank area. How do I prevent this from happening?
