Hi, Marc.

Thank you for the help. But the problem is I am a little dumb with VFP. My situation is the form is running. The
user clicks the ADD button. In the click event of the ADD button I want to creat an updatable cursor with
a previously known no. of blank records which the user will fill and then after validation I can Insert into the
many table.

Is this situation possible. BTW I didn.t understand the difference between having the grid source in the Load
and Init event? If I am not too demanding can I get a little more light on the stuff.

thanks a lot
