Well, I did find a work around, by not issuing the Resize code if it was the first resize, this seems to have sorted it, but it still doesn't make sense, why would a grid Resize before Initialising?

After the Resize() event has finished (and screwed all of the column sizes!) it then goes straight into Resize() again but in MY grid with the correct width etc., BUT when all this is over, the grid that displays is the grid in the first Resize() execution and the sizes completely wrong

>>>Based on your grid class a simple solution might be to call :
