Zaheed,
Once a grid is loaded its columns(n) always points to same column no matter how you move, size the column. You could utilize this fact to save/restore. Below is a sample doing that at runtime, you could enhnace the code to persist it per user in a table or ini file during form close and restore in form.init. For demonstration I assume you have a grid on the form named myGrid and 2 buttons for save and restore :

* First play with sizes and ordering
* then click 'Save'

* Save button click
Create Cursor temp (ColOrder i, Width i)
With Thisform.myGrid
  For ix=1 To .ColumnCount
    With .Columns(ix)
      Insert Into temp Values (.ColumnOrder,.Width)
    Endwith
  Endfor
Endwith

* Now play with size and ordering again
* then click 'Restore'

* Restore button click
Select temp
With Thisform.myGrid
  Scan
    With .Columns(Recno())
      .ColumnOrder = ColOrder
      .Width = Width
    Endwith
  Endscan
Endwith
