I am displaying a grind on my form. The grid is linked to a table with recordsourcetype = alias. I am briefly doing a 'USE IN' on the table in the grid in order to zip the file. This apparently causes the grid to become blank. I try to use the table again with the proper alias, refresh the grid, and refresh the entire form. Nothing seems to make the data appear back in the grid. However, when I try to reset grid1.recordsource = 'mytable' the data appears, but all my columns are not the right size and the code associated with the grid click events are gone. Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

TIA, Baron
