Grid control events not firing

[greywalk]

Has anyone ever encountered a situation where the grid control events do not fire?

On my computer the events fire. On another developer's computer the events do not fire.

I placed a set step on in the valid event of the text box for column 7. On my computer it fires. On his computer it does not fire. No other changes were made.

Suggestions?

At the risk of being too basic, is it a compiled .exe or are you just running a form? If it is an .exe it of course won't do a set step on.

Dave,

That would be so easy. Unfortunately it is not compiled into exe. If so the message would come back feature not available.

Still puzzling over it.

By chance are you rebuilding the data source on the other pc? Like running a query for the grid. What I'm thinking is maybe a query returning no records, or resetting the control source may lose the defined events. Or are you doing something like:

ThisForm.Grid1.ControlSource = ''
SELECT ...... INTO CURSOR TmpCursor
ThisForm.Grid1.ControlSource = 'TmpCursor'

Sorry to take so long Dave.

No I am not building the cursor on th other PC. However if I understand your comment correctly...

"resetting the control source may lose the defined events." I think that might be part of it. However the code is in the event for the object in the grid and that is not firing.
