ControlSource Changes
(1) in code, but not that often, only when the # of columns can change (not known at form.Load())
(1 a) prior to the gridClass.Init()
(2) Grid.RecordSource: not that often, can cope with that

DynamicBackColor changes

(1) set via designer (old stuff, hate to touch it)
(2) via code
(2 a) grid.init() (sample on one of the previous)
(2 b) gridclass.init() -- under control
(2 c) sometimes (under program control) when the order of the grid changes, ie 4 of 5 colours that nicely show the groups, eg customer 1,1,1 2,2,2 3,3,3,3 ...
(2 d) a number of other places, including the SetAll()
(2 e) .. something I cannot think of right now

The thing is that I wanted to do it nicely (and lazily) via the assign method


Thanks for the help
