Hi!

You can use edit box in the grid column. You can use expression as a control source of the column and use usual text box.

About "what if it is longer than column width"... Well, there are no good solutions in VFP for that. You can try to use the listbox inside of the grid column with only one item and no scrolling, and configure it display a tool tip to show the entire text of the list box item when mouse pointed over the item. You can use custom control so when user point mouse over the grid cell with beginning of the text, entire text is shown in a separate window or in form of tool tip. Take a look to the Fancy Tool Tip control in downloads - this can help you to implement the approach with tool tip or at least hint you how to catch the moment when mouse is over the grid cell and show somthing.

HTH.
