Right Lutz,
I'd also do it programmatically - multiselectgrid class as an example does that :) Here I skin my cat programmatically adding and sizing a container class instead.

>>Grid dblclick would work if dblclicked in a dead area (gridlines, after recs etc). Other times dblclick of controls would work. It's cumbersome to add functioanlity to all controls to call grid's click. Instead you can control it from one place :) Place a transparent container in front of grid. In dblclick put your code but be sure to test where you're with gridhittest and activate clicked row first to get correct PK. Instead of activating you could temporarily set visibility of container to .f. and do a click at the same location.
