No problem Keith. Also saw your other post about a button in the datagrid. Once again, it might be worth considering a combination of the dghilitedline and one button outside the datagrid that would launch your processing of the currently selected datagrid row. I have some code I use that floats a button next to whatever row the user clicks on so it's right next to their selected line, but a static button works too..
Hope that helps.
