I'm new to this grou and to VFP but not to Foxpro. Few years ago I used 
Foxpro2.6 (for DOS) and in BROWSE command I used "computed values" in some 
fields. Example

USE customers
BROWSE FIELDS cust_id, fullname=ALLTRIM(fname)+' '+ALLTRIM(lname) NOMODIFY

I found that the similar command work in VFP8 too:

BROWSE FIELDS cust_id, fullname=ALLTRIM(fname)+' '+ALLTRIM(lname) NAME bygrid

In debugger I see that mygrid.Column2.ControlSource contain this value 
"ALLTRIM(fname)+' '+ALLTRIM(lname)" but I'm not able to do the same effect in 
standard Grid object. Is it possible? How?

To explain why I can do it I want to say: fields "fname" and "lname" is 
defined as C(100) and this is too big to show in grid. For this reason I want 
to show single "computed" field containing both trimed values from table 
fields.
