>Unless it's changed since I looked at in VFP3, InGrid works like the old JKey, in that you don't actually see what you're typing, and there's a timeout period based on the setting of _dblclick. My class is a textbox, with the advantages I mentioned in my previous message.

Just realized, what we already have something similar. In our framework we have a navigation bar with Search button. It invokes another form with textbox and a grid. I believe, the code in textbox is similar to yours...
