>I have a grid on a pageframe that displays fine when you first display the page. To add a record to the grid, the user clicks a command button, goes to a new screen, enters the data and returns to the first page. The grid is supposed to refresh and include new record. However, whenever you return to the grid, the columns resize, the headers are now field names not the header names I set and it displays all columns in the select statement that populates the grid (I don't want to display data for the primary key field). Any ideas why grid is resizing. I run a grid_resize method to refresh data?

Doug, while some details on how exactly you do this are not clear, I bet you somewhere rebuild the cursor which is the RecordSource of the grid. This causes the grid to reconstruct itself, so you loose the original formatting and get the default columns order in the cursor instead. You might try to use the view instead of the SELECT statement. Requiring the view does not cause the grid recordsource destruction.
