>>>Just an idea, and you may not like it, but IMO grid rebuilding is time consuming and tricky process. Why don't you have three or four grids and keep all but one hidden? Show the one you need at any particular moment. Even if you build them on the fly, build them only once. Have a reference of each of the grids in their container's (form, page, whatever) array property (take care at .destroy, but you know that). At least when switching between grids you wouldn have them flip almost instantaneously.

>Actually no - each time you take a new selection from this grid description table, build a new grid in a new container. You can class the container to have all the code you need. Hide other containers and show the new one. In other words, if destrozing columns won't work, just hide the previous grid and build a new one.

This is a nice idea! However, this decreases form load speed a lot.
It is possible to implement it so that form load and program startup speed will not decrease ?

In VFUG newletter, there was an article by Vladimir Zevtsheno about using
timer to remove columns from Grid. This article says that direct removeobject()
causes VFP 5 GPF and recommends to remove column using timer.
However, I have no idea how to use timer in this situation.
