>>>Hi Bruce,
>>>Thanks for the code for the grid, it works wonderfully! I don't think I can use the messagebox code however as it's a system message box that appears and not one that I created. Here's what happens: during runtime after a sql statement runs, a message box appears (asking if to overwrite the file) requiring the user to select "yes" or "no" and I would like to have the message box automatically choose "yes". I guess something similar to the "Set Notify OFF" command but since that's limited to messages like "Expression is valid" dialog boxes. Also I've got Fox Pro ver. 6.0 so it won't perform all the new things from version 7 that you've got.
>>>Thanks again so much for your help!

That's good point but it still a matter of personal preferences. I always have SET SAFETY OFF and never had any problems.
