>>Weird, and sounds like a real bug. Couple of things I'd check - see if file("myheaderclass.prg") returns .t. from within the grid setup code, and what is the set("procedure") returning at that point. Somehow this seems that the grid setup is firing far earlier than we may think.

>While I have no idea why this was a problem, the problem was that I couldn't pass more than 4 parameters to the form. It had nothing to do with the headers. So I collected the parameters into an object and passed the object and now all is well. This has to be the craziest bug I've encountered. Thanks to all who tried to help!
