>I have a local view in a grid, which can be edited. When the user uses the down arrow to move down a record, it seems like the file pointer isn't actually moved down one until the fields are tabbed through. In other words, it seems to not have correct data in the grid1.column1.text1.value until the field is tabbed into. Does this make sense? I'm doing a calculation using a field that they don't tab into and it's using the data from the previous record.

Doing calculations in grids is a bit of a beast. When you do your calculation, I trust you are making _sure_ that you are leaving your record pointer in the same state it was before doing the calculation?

Is the grid's recordsource a child? IOW are you using LinkMaster, ChildOrder, and so on? Any chance those are getting mucked with?
