>Hi-
>
>I have two grids on a form. The top grid is the Master Record, and the bottom shows detail.
>
>When the MasterRecord is moved, in the AfterRolColChangeEvent
>I run a SQL to update the control source data used by the detail grid below, and refresh the data in that grid with:
>
>thisform.Jgrid1.recordsource=thisform.Jgrid1.recordsource
>
>Data is refreshed correctly but the bottom detail grid redraws and shows the data with no regard to how the control was initial established, including Column widths, headings, titles and positioning.
>
>This, of course, is not only undesired, it is extremely frustrating.
>
>Any suggestions or ideas as to what I am not doing, or doing incorrectly. I prefer not to go to a list box as it would not have headings.
>
>Thanks for any suggestions.
