>>I have a grid for child table records on a form. The

>>The grid Enable property has been set to .F. also. All columns have Sparse set to .F.. When the user clicks on an Edit button, I enable the grid. 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.

>There was a thread on something like this a while back -- one way to deal with properties that "slip off" is just to add some code to enforce what you want, like Readonly = .T., Enabled = .F., etc. -- if you can't figure out easily why the properties are changing. I've had several like this.


Your right. I forget too. But I bekieve it is listed in the MS Knowledge base -- under BUGS! <s> You may want to do a search there.
