>I have a grid that holds about 20 columns, and the first column in the grid is important to have on the screen when looking at columns that you need to scroll to. I tried to use the Partition Property, but it did not work quite the way I wanted it to work. Is there any other way to get a column to stay/freeze to the left side?

>Is it possible to lock the first column of a grid so that it always stays visible while scrolling the remaining columns
left and right? I know this can be done in Excel, but I can't seem to find how to do it with a VFP grid.

If you have time and patience, you can play with this two snippets:

**** Grid.Scrolled event
LPARAMETERS nDirection
if thisform.blockscroll=.t.
return
endif
thisform.blockscroll=.t.
do case
case this.column1.columnorder=this.leftcolumn
case this.column1.columnorder<=this.leftcolumn-1
for n=this.column1.columnorder+1 to this.leftcolumn-1
this.column1.columnorder=n
endfor
this.doscroll(4)
this.refresh
case this.column1.columnorder>this.leftcolumn
for n=this.column1.columnorder-1 to this.leftcolumn step -1
this.column1.columnorder=n
endfor
this.column1.setfocus
endcase
thisform.blockscroll=.f.
*** Grid.afterrowcolchange event
this.scrolled
