Beat me by 9 seconds!!!! :)))

The funny thing is what we're saying absolutely the same in different words...

Isn't spiritual? :)

>>I need to display a list of documents into a grid based on an sql query. Within the grid I need to be able to check/uncheck which docs I want to include in a report. I also need to be able to add temporary docs that may not have been in the initial query. Thanks for your help.

>Add a calculated logical field to your SQL query (SELECT ..., .f. AS myCheck,...), make your cursor updatable ( SELECT ... READWRITE in VFP 7 or USE(DBF(mycursor)IN 0 AGAIN for other versions). Add the checkbox control into grid column (.sparse = .f.) corresponding to the logical field. If the cursor is updatable, you will be able to add records to it the way you want.
