>>>>Cetin, I've the deletion part ok(I guess) but the thing is when you have say 5 items in the grid and you want the user to click on the one he wants deleted, say the 3 item in the grid. The user puts the mouse over the 3rd item but it does respond even though I have a proceedure in the grid's click event. Howver, if you click on an empty part of the grid, the click event fires.

>>>Tim,
>>>You mean it doesn't get focus or grid.click doesn't run ? If latter that's default behaviour of grid. You can use something like Nick's click transparent control to intercept clicks over grid.

>>Cetin, GRID.CLICK FIRES ONLY WHEN YOU DON'T CLICK ON an item but fires if you click on some emptyness(white blank) part on the grid.

>Default behaviour of grid - Mouse events occur for :

>If you place a transparent container in front of grid you can intercept mouse events and propagate to grid if you want.

No my capslock was on for a moment b4 I realized it. I only shout at my kids.
So what I am describing is normal behavior? That grid items are not clickable?
