Hi All:

I've started dabbling with a grid and I just need some help to get me up to speed.

I want a simple form that'll create a cursor of filenames, populate a grid with the list and have the user click a check box in the grid next to any filename he wants to do an action on (the action itself is not important here, probably).

So I created a form, dropped a grid with the followng attributes:

recordtype=alias (I also tried 'table')
recordsource = CURS_MATRIX

I then set up two methods in the form

INIT
DODEFAULT()
thisform.CreateMatrixCursor()
thisform.grdMatrix.Refresh()
 
CREATEMATRIXCURSOR
ADIR(laMatrix,'c:\agri\poult\excel spreadsheets\agri????.xls')
 
CREATE CURSOR CURS_MATRIX (cu_fname c (15))
 
APPEND FROM ARRAY laMatrix
 
ALTER table CURS_MATRIX ADD cu_lupd L

Nothing appears in the grid!

I'm probably doing something real stupid, but if I don't ask, I won't know.

Thanks a lot.

Yossi
