>>We have found a small bug in Visual FoxPro when the cursor sits on a column of a grid and when we do a refresh. Occasionnaly, the grid won't be refreshed. When that happens, and that only happens occasionnaly, we just put the cursor on another control, outside of the grid, and the next refresh will be ok.

There is no SetFocus() at the form level. So, we need to rely on something else that will always work no matter what type of form we have.

>How about adding a textbox to your form class? You need to set its Visible property to .t. and TabStop to .F. In the Init put This.Top = -30 so it is not visible to the user, but its visible property must be .t. Now you can set focus to that control for refreshes.

I did force a SetFocus() on one of my control whenever I call the Refresh() method. This solves the problem.

I was wondering, instead of adding a control, is there a way to detect the control #1 in the tab sequence so we can focus on that?
