thanks,
I can get to the code in the container object fine but in run time
when the grid object is added to my form and I try and double click on
a cell it will not perform code in the 'text1' control.
When I previous set up the form i just added a grid to it but now
i want to use this grid in other forms so I just made it a container object
and just use addobject() to place on my different forms. It used to
work fine.

In the grid.column1.header1.text1 i have in the dblclick method

loform = createobject('frmnewform')
loform.show(1)

This code will never even hit..I have tested by setting step on and
it will not even load debug.
