Hi,

I hope you dont mind but I have sent an email with a screen shot of the find box I wrote to your email address.

Basically, in our system you have browse windows where you can select employees. Users wanted the ability to search these browse windows for specific values. I have create the Find form to look exactly like the MS one and it also supports the CTRL+G functionality.

I'm not sure if this really fits what you need.

Can you explain this a little more so I can get a better feel for it. Maybe send me a screen shot of what you want to search.

Control F used to be the way to do it in Foxpro 2.6, where Control G then took you to the next instance of the character string, and you had the option of setting wrap round on etc.
