I get the message "The control is ReadOnly" when I press a key on the keyboard while the cursor is in a
textbox control in one of a grid column. I make the control ReadOnly, because I don't want the user to edit the
contents of the textbox control. If the user strikes a key while the cursor is in that control, the keypress method
will search for the key pressed by the user within that column.

If I put "return .F." in the When event of the control, the user will not be able to go into that column.

Pls give me any other advice...
