FWIW, i NEVER let my clients edit directly a grid. I generally have a line just below ( or above the grid ) with the editing fields. This way, i use the grid only for display. Also, i always use the native VFP grid ( no external ocx controls ), wich proved to be the best choice over the years...

Cheers,
Jaime
