Re: Grids... simple, but I don't know...

1. Sounds like you've got the grid bound to the wrong alias. If it isn't
bound, it'll use whatever alias is currently selected.

2. Don't use filters with grids prior to VFP9. Ever. Put one hand on the
desk and slap it with the other. <g> This situation is absolutely perfect
for a parameterized view.

VFP 8. Have a grid that's populated from a table(free table).
Initial form asks for user to input a vehicle number, then it does a
seek in the vehicle db and displays description, etc. User can then
click a button to display alignment data for this vehicle. I have
the dbf open in the data environment, and have a filter set to filter
the records to the vehicle number the user entered. When I click on
the button and pull up the form with the grid on it, I get a list of
records, all for that particular vehicle, but, I'm getting just a
list of multiple records that are exactly the same. For the one
vehicle I'm using to test this with, I should have approx. 10
records, all different of course. That's not what I'm seeing though,
I'm seeing about 30 records, all exactly the same.

Any help? I'm sure it's something simple, but I'm very inexperienced
with VFP.

Thanks!
