Hi Ulises, the ControlSource setting for the column overrides the setting in text.controlsource, I believe it even generates an error if you set the textbox control source directly. The point is that all you need to do is set the column's controlsource and you're ready to go.

>In a grid: what is the difference between setting the control source property of a column to a given field and/or setting it to the text control within the column???
