Hi Bob.

>> Is it possible to display the contents of a memo field in a grid. I've tried but all I get is the word 'memo' appearring in the column. <<

If your memo fields contain a lot of information and you have enough screen real estate, you may want to consider dropping an edit box on the form and binding it to the memo field in the grid's RecordSource. All you need is this line of code in the grid's AfterRowColChange to synchronize the memo field on the form with the current grid row:

This.Parent.EdtGridMemo.Refresh()
