Vlad,

>>...You can try to simulate the current record pointer programmatically, much the same approach as grid row highlighting. Make a column, remember the recno() of the record source in the nRecNo property of the grid, than specify properties of the column...

Yes. I've tried that and it does work. Unfortunately, it requires that the grid's recordsource have the pseudo recno field. I'm trying to make this grid class as generic as possible. IOW, I don't want to force the cursor/table to have any columns that exist only to make the grid happy.

Thanks anyway,
Thom C.
