Hi Barbara
The RecordSource is a view and the controlSource are fields within the view.

If I set up text boxes beside the grid,whose controlsource is a field from the view, I can amend the Text Boxes ok and they are then reflected in the grid... but I still cannot amend the data from within the grid itself.

Regards,
Gerard
