<< The design would require the host to create a lcoal cursor and get data from the busobj one record (actually one field) at a time and populate the local cursor. It would need to write the dat back that way also. Essentially, grids are not really well suited for this model.

If we can get ADO working better with VFP then the issue becomes moot, just empower the busobj to send back an ADO cursor. >>

Ok, I'll buy that. I thought maybe you had a really cool trick up your sleeve (or in the back of the purple limo).

Thanks
