Hi Marty, Best I can think of is to get the dgProps["column widths"] property of the datagrid. It contains a comma-delimited list of the widths of the columns so by adding up the first 3 items of the list, you'll get the left edge of the 4th column, and adding the first 4 items of that list, you'll get the right edge of the 4th column, both relative to the left edge of the datagrid. From that you can figure out thew width and placement of your field. I don't know if the width includes the separator line between the columns. Pete Molly's Revenge <http://www.mollysrevenge.com>
