Try following:

this.grdRequirements.recordsource = ""
this.grdRequirements.recordsourcetype = 1
thisform.grdRequirements.ColumnCount=-1
this.grdRequirements.recordsource = "csrRequiredClasess"

That ended up just showing a blank screen?? It really shouldn't be this hard. I decided for now to created another form that holds the desired grid and then just call do form frmWithGrid when I was ready.

Thanks for the advice, though, I am sure I will revisit this one.
