>I have a pageframe with several pages. On two of the pages I have a grid attached to a table with an alias. When the form is refreshed with a new index record I am not able to see the contents of these grids unless I press a key.

The only active page of the pageframe get refreshed with form refresh. Add This.Refresh() to Activate of all pages.

>Clicking on the grid also does not show the records. Also a command button that I have on the grid is only visable if the row is selected. Any help would be appreciated.

Set Sparse property of the column to .F. to show current control in this column for all rows.
