Hi, Sylvain-

>Thanks for your reply! I never taught of adding the Grid dynamically too since there was some code in there. I guess it could be a good time to use the BINDEVENT <s>

Glad you liked it, tho' the only reason I chose to do it programmatically was to make a runnable example. When you do it as you mention in the rest of your post, by using addobject during runtime on a visually created grid, you have to set object's visibility to .T. I know that you can see it, and that it's readonly, but it's the visible property that needs to be set. I just tried the scenario to be sure, and that does indeed seem to do the trick.

HTH.
