Hi Jimi

You don't need the separate shapes for each row. Click-transparent shape(container) will pass the click through itself and click will normally activate whatever grid cell is under the mouse. This is just a different way of doing things. This approach allows to add the necessary functionality to any grid without changing anything in the grid itself, whether it is created in code or placed at design time. Of course you will need to properly resize and reposition the click-transparent control, so it covers your grid.
There is a sample file
http://advisor.com/wFiles.nsf/wCatID/MMf0012.nekln01.zip/$file/Nekln01.zip which contains all forms/classes. There is the exact sample where the righ-click menu is called that way. Look at FORMGRID1.SCX. The grid there is covered with cntGridCover click-transparent container class which is subclassed from cntTransparent class. Look at the code in the classes and in the instance in the form.

I don't know why you really adding the grid in code and not at design time. I never had to do this. May be you could just create it at design time, place the code in the column textbox and make the grid invisible until you need it.
