Gerard,

>>I just noticed now that the only bit I left out was the MyFirstColumn bit... I wonder if this is causing it.... maybe this sets focus ??<

Nah, that's not it. I'm thinking that it's probably your BindingContext. There are two different ways to specify this and .NET thinks they are two different BindingManagers, even though you're binding to the same table.

I told you to do it this way:

            this.BindingContext[this.dsIFSR.Tables["IFISR"]].Position = recno ;

But, you could also do it this way:

            this.BindingContext[this.dsIFSR, "IFISR"].Position = recno ;

See the difference? Same table, but different BindingManager objects. Try it the second way and see if that does it for you.
