Dennis, I had the same question last week on this and decided that I would use a textcontrol. Originally, I placed an EDITBOX into the grid, but since it didn't open up, I went back to the Textbox control and selected LEFT(memofieldname,100). This basically solved my problem and gave me a preview of what was in the memo field.

It would still be nice though, if we could somehow open the memo field up in the EDITBOX control in a grid. If anyone knows how to do this, "I'm all ears", as quoted by Ross Perot in his bid for the Presidency a few years ago.
