>>>I have a form with a grid in a page frame. The data environment has a filter that's being applied from a choice in a combo box. That all works fine, but occasionally when the user clicks back to the tab with the grid one or several records will just display with asterisks across all fields. Has anyone run into this or does anyone have any ideas about what could be causing this?

>Hi Bill --
>Yes, it is refreshing. The problem is in the grid itself. Some of the records display properly and some are just asterisks -- it's almost as if the data has gotten corrupted, except the table (when I look at it) is always fine.

Look at what you have for an .InputMask property for the column or textbox. If you have 9999 but the value is 99999, then asteriks will show up. This is typically true for numeric data and I've had that happen. It will also happen if the column is not wide enough to show all the value. Again, usually with numbers.
