Matt, It does not exactly reply to your question. Please consider NOT to update / edit a textbox in a grid, use instead a textbox outside the grid. To be sure your textbox is updated, when txtbox ControlSourse is a cursor apply the 'safeselect' procedure as developped by Andy Kramek. This works 100% always. Regards, Koen
