Hello Tracy, I rebuilt the entire project but that did not change the controls on the forms to the new version.
I opened the form.scx file and found the ctGrid OLE control, but not sure what field should be changed ? It looks like the OLE field contains the actual object, and OLE2 contains the path to the OCX file. I checked that the OCX in the DBI\Components folder is the new version, but the form still shows the old version. I am guessing that I need to change the OLE field ?

I believe a complete rebuild of the project will fix your issue. If not, there is a way to update the form by using the scx and replacing the memo fields that are relevant to the record. I found SCATTER and GATHER worked the best for the couple I've done in the past. This doesn't lose any settings or code.
