The problem I am having is that when a grid textbox is clicked on with the mouse, or tabbed to, the Readonly property changes to .T.. Clicking on the Record Marker area affects column 1. Any subsequent attempt to edit a value produces a "The Record is Read-Only." message. I have no code in any method that changes this property. I checked this with the Trace and Debug windows.

Tom,
I was using the term cursor as it relates to tables in the Data Environment which have a ReadOnly property. I have tried doing some resets of ReadOnly in grid events, but the problem persists. I'm going to build a new grid and see what happens.
Thanks for responding. From what I see, you spend a lot of time on the Thread doing this. It's reassuring to know somebody out there is listening, as a lot of us on the Thread appear to be on our own with VFP.
