>>>Thanks Denis for your kind offer of help. I will try the ADO mode that you have experience with. Can you provide me with an example of the connection string that you use and what property you put it in, or what method you use to set it?

I working with ADO mode, create connection string to VFP table and using SQL Select Expression to fill control with data. Another way - Unbound mode. As data source in Unbound mode using array. Download trial version and if you have any question you can email me.

>>>>>>>>>I have a customer who is a big fan of how MS Outlook presents his contact list in Address Card view, and would like to see some work I am doing for him presented "like this" if possible. I thought of making a new control using a CONTAINER and putting multiple text boxes in it which I could use as the control in a grid column, but I am unable to insert this control in a grib when I try.
