Hi all;
I am creating grids in my forms by dropping a table into the form. The
default header's mouse icon is a down arrow which misleads the user
into thinking that the column can be sorted.
Is there a way to change this default so it doesn't have the down arrow
Thx.

Grid headers default mouse pointers etc...

Change the Grid.column.header.MousePointer Property to 1
thisform.grdMyGrid.column1.header1.MousePointer= 1

You could try using the columns collection....
FOR EACH loCol IN This.Columns
loCol.Header1.MousePointer = 1
NEXT
You could probably add this code to your 'dropped on' grid class Init()...

What Alex said!
If you are just using base classes directly then there is no solution except to fix each one individually. You should create a custom grid class and then replace all references in your forms to the base class grid with a reference to your class. YOu can do this programmatically if you want to but you should really use a tool like HackCx (available from White Light Computing at:
http://www.whitelightcomputing.com/prodhackcxpro.htm
This will enable youto update existing forms(and visual class libraries) without having to go through the designers...

When I drop in a grid from the DE or from anywhere else, the class for the grid is 'grid', which wouldn't allow any code manipulation...

That goes without saying... But my question is how to make it so I don't need to go over my 45 fields in the grid and do so.
Oh, and I guess I can use setall to change these but I'm wondering if there is a way to define my dropped-in grids so they are not predefined as down-arrow in the header's mousepointer...
Thanks,
