[mimosa]

Hi every body!

Thanks for any help

I don't know of a way to change the color of the cursor, but you can use the MOUSEPOINTER property to change its shape.

If you're referring to the cursor that shows you which cell is active in the grid, check out the "SelectedForeColor" and "SelectedBackColor" of the individual controls in each column. By default, they are text boxes. So, to make a "red cursor" in the first column, set:

thisform.grid1.column1.text1.SelectedBackColor=RGB(255,0,0)
thisform.grid1.column1.text1.SelectedForeColor=RGB(255,255,255)

This will make the text in the selected box white with a red background, thus giving the appearance of a red cursor.

MyGird.InitEvent
DODEFAULT()
WITH THIS
.SetAll("DynamicBackColor", ;
"IIF(recno(This.RecordSource)=THIS.inRecno, ;
RGB(0,255,0),RGB(255,255,192))","COLUMN&quot
ENDWITH
**EOF
====================================================
MyGrid.WhenEvent
This.inRecNo = RECNO()
RETURN .T.
====================================================
When the above codes are used in the said events of the grid control, the selected row will get the highlight.
This idea will help you to manipulate the colours ina similar way, as you want it.

Create a form level variable inRecNo and make the initial value to 0 (Zero). In my previous posting, I forgot to mention this.

If you want to use a number of different colour combinations and /or change the colours for individual cells in your grid, see FAQ184-624.
