THanks.. This not exactly what I was after.. I was wanting one solid line on the first three columns. I dont want the user to think they can edit those cells. Like FixedCols in Delph grid. Not the end of the world if it wont work.. I just dont like having the user think they can edit those first 3 columns/cells. It looks like I can do it with the string grid, but NOT the dbgrid.. Weird

Ok, got my old code to work fine.. Really liking it.. I have one complaint, not sure what can be done if anything.. I have a grid, I use to ordering product. The columns are UPC,Description, Price, Quanity I ONLY edit quanity. Normally, I lock the first 3 columns.. and only scroll through the last one "Quanity" 1. Is there a way to lock the first 3 columns? 2. Is there an easy way to do data entry on the last column? Right now, I need to double click on each cell to edit.. Anyway to simply arrow through my rows? Gordon

Thank you for the sample code.. Worked great.. My code is going to be so much simpler without the call back functions.. Is there any reason to use call back functions now?

OK, Good news. I was able to get my old project (About 5 years old) to compile with just a few changes. When doing dialogs in the past, you need to use a call back function. My question is, I assume that is still the case? Or is there any way to make the app more modal? Gordon

Ok, thanks.. Im excited to dig in again. BTW, i have some code that is about 4-5 years old.. Im assuming that wont compile?

I have no doubt what you are saying is true.. I just wonder why for 5 years, its still called beta. It seems stable enough to be considered a real release. Beta gives the notion that its still not stable.. I am going to buy it, but I wont lie, I have some concerns.. When you go to buy the product, you are met with Before you proceed. Please take it into consideration that these products are not fully finished and currently in last stages of beta mode. They may lack important features such as proper API documentation, user guide and other related materials. Im just wondering if what the timeline is for a release.. Gordon

Hi, I have been following this product with great hopes for over 3-4 years.. I wrote an app with it about 4 years ago, it worked ok but had some kinks. Now, I and looking at using it again. Ive been reading and all of you seem to speak highly of it.. Im confused.. If it seems stable enough to write real apps with it, why is it still in beta 4 years later? Are they/You afraid to release a real version because of liability issue? Is it not stable enough after all of these years to have a non beta version? To me, just glancing at it, it looks like it is ready for prime time.. What am i missing? Gordon
