Hi Andrus.

There are a couple of very easy way to do this that I know of:

1. Download MTVFPEX.ZIP from the vcx section of the library here. There are a bunch of helpful code examples beside this one (which, by the way, uses very little code)

2. Visit David Frankenbach's web site and download his control for highlighting the grid row (I think the address is www.geocities.com/7134)
