>>>Hi, me again!
>>>I'm putting a checkbox in the first column of a grid. The second column is a series of items from a related file (related to the files that the checkbox control source is in)
>>>It all works OK, except that the checkbox only shows up when the record is select. I have the checkbox's table as the initial selected alias in the DE, and have relationship set in the DE between the two files. Why won't the checkbox show up always?????
>>>Thanks loads.

>>Rebecca, you need to set the Sparse property for the column with the checkbox to false. This will allow the checkbox (or any other control inside a column) to always display, even when a cell doesn't have the focus.\
