Hi!

With the ColumnCount=-1 grid is reconstructed at run-time before display data, so all code, custom controls and preoprty settings are lost. When you still want to use COlumnCount = -1, You require to make some programmatic actions after grid is initialized (better do this in the Init event of the grid). In your case you require to define a custom control class that you will use to display data in the grid instead of the default textbox. Add this textbox to the grid and remove the default text box. In the class in the DblClick event call the function you want. You can do it even more generic, if you want.

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs

It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
