The guy really can't win, can he...

When he says "BUG" in the thread title (some) people jump all over him for reasons unknown but consistent.

When he carefully avoids the word "BUG" in a thread title he is told that he is saying it is a bug anyway!

Another thing that I might as well clear up while I'm here...
In another thread you repled 'all you have to do is SetFocus to the grid in init' and I asked if this was documented or a workaround or what and you said it didn't matter to you. Well, it DOES MATTER, a whole lot, to other readers. If it's a documented thing then they know they can rely on finding it there should the situation arise, BUT if it's a workaround then they may want to 'file it away', possibly in some list they keep or possibly in a UT folder or possibly in the UT 'Favorites' list or possibly just as a mental note or possibly...
In other words, your reply was curt and far less helpful than it should have been.
