Hi Jason - Yes the column and the controls are also set to readonly=.f.. Basically what I am doing is populating the grid from a mover box of selected items and allowing them to change the quantity ordered. Default is 1 but they may want to change that. Because of the need for ease of use and efficiency, they can select all from the mover, go to the grid and change the quantity on any item. Unfortunately, the grid is populated, but I cannot get it to accept a change in the quantity field or any other column for that matter. Got me stumped. Thanks for the help though.

>Tom, if you absolutely have to do this, make sure your columns and the controls they contain are also set ReadOnly = .F.

>>Hi All - I am using VFP 7.0 and Mere Mortals 6.1.2. I have a grid populated with a view. I would like 1 column updateable, although all 3 columns could be. I have used cGrid and cGridList. Both have Readable unchecked and I have unchecked the column and in fact all columns so Readable only is False. Can't get the column to accept a change. Cannot change it at all. In the cGridList I have made the changes specified by the Dev. Guide and havve placed it in a container. Don't care which one I use as long as one of them works. A friend had a similar problem and he finally went to the base class grid of VFP. I would rather not do that. Any thoughts what I might be missing? Thanks for the help.
