Further to my last message.
Ah ha... you are right, my pointer moving code does not select the parent alias, it uses the "IN" terminology, eg SKIP IN (thisform.cAlias)
So I added a .movePtr_pre() method to my form base class which is called by all pointer moving methods and simply does a select (thisform.cAlias).
Fixed! Thanks
(Still, that's quirky grid behaviour I was seeing, ;-))
