Yes, it's all set manually. Right now, re-creating it programatically would be easy because it's just a simple grid. But eventually, it will be replaced by a more complicated grid with custom controls and will be a pain to re-create.

At any rate, it's working now. I'm not sure what was wrong. Possibly, I had spelled a control source wrong. Since they're not in the data environment, I couldn't just pick it from the list.

Thanks,

Michelle

I've developed my own postulate on reusability that addresses this: "Reusability is in direct inverse proportion to complexity". IOW, the more complex an object is, the less reusable. That's why I feel these are difficult to properly sub-class.
