Hi Steve,

First you should move the code to Activate

close data
use attend

You probably must add the following line, can not tell for sure without having seen all you code:

thisform.Grid1.recordsource=attend

You maybe must also add more lines to set controlsource to each column
And then your own code:

thisForm.Grid1.refresh()
thisForm.Grid1.setFocus()
