Kevin,

The problem may be the (.recordsource), not the SKIP. I've experienced problems inside WITH...ENDWITH constructs. It seems that with certain commands (LOCATE, REPLACE) that expect Table.Fieldname, VFP gets confused when you pass it a .Property. Consequently when I'm using these commands, I spell out the property in full (i.e. THISFORM.Property). By the same token you might try the SKIP command referencing THISFORM.Grid.RecordSource (hopefully when you issue SKIP -7, you actually have seven records to skip. :)).

Hope this helps

John
