hi Evelyn,

Could you make the recordsource of grid1 fixed ? I'm guessing a bit here, and I do not see the need for the 'select ... into sys(2015)'

(1) Form designer
grid1.recordsourceType = 1
grid1.recordsource = 'temp'

(2) form load
use temp && if not already open

(3) Form init
you do not need : thisform.grid1.recordsource="select * from temp into cursor sys(2015)"

(4) Form activate
you do not need : thisform.grid1.recordsource="select * from temp into cursor sys(2015)"
