Anderson,

A grid has a recordsource and that is where the grid gets its identity and its rows. When you pack a table you delete the recordsource of the grid and that makes the grid go crazy. You need to set the recordsource of the grid to "", then pack, then reset the recordsource of the grid again. If you have anything set up in the grid's columns those properties also must be reset.

The real solution is to NOT pack, but rahter SET DELETED ON and do the packing as an administrative activity at some later time. PACKing a table will not work in a multiuser environment anyway as it requires exclusive use of the table and that locks all other users out of the table.
