Hi!

Read VGP Grids Part I article in the August 2001 issue of the Universal Thread Magazine on this site. Ther is grid reconstruction behaviour in grid that seems happen in your case. Probably at some moment your program switch data session, or close the alias used by grid or similar thing happen.

HTH.

Anyway, whenever this happens the grid that is on my form (it's a simple app) goes completely mental. It cycles through a set of error messages that state that the columns in the grid cannot be found interminably. I have do the dreaded Ctrl-Alt-Del and shut down VFP completely to get out of it.
