SYMPTOMS
========

When you press the TAB key to move across a row in a grid, after moving into the
last column, the mouse pointer jumps one column to the left and displays a
phantom column.

For example, this happens when the grid has these properties:

   .ColumnCount = 4
   .RecordMark = .F.
   .DeleteMark = .F.
   .ScrollBars = 0
   .Width = 400
   .Column1.Width = 100
   .Column2.Width = 100
   .Column3.Width = 100
   .Column4.Width = 100

RESOLUTION
==========

To suppress the horizontal scrolling effect and the display of a phantom column
after the last column, set the grid's Width property to a value that causes the
right border of the grid to be displayed in a thicker (bolder) line. This makes
the edge of the right-most column the same as the border of the grid.

For example, add seven to the sum of the column widths in the example given in
the "Symptoms" section of this article. This suppresses the horizontal scrolling
effect:

   .ColumnCount = 4
   .RecordMark = .F.
   .DeleteMark = .F.
   .ScrollBars = 0
   .Width = 407 && Add 7 to the sum of the column widths
   .Column1.Width = 100
   .Column2.Width = 100
   .Column3.Width = 100
   .Column4.Width = 100

The addition of seven pixels to the sum of the column widths is based on the
number of vertical lines in the grid, which includes the right border of the
grid. When the grid's Width property is set to 407, the right border of the grid
is shown in bold in the Form Designer. When the form is executed, you will not
be able to press the TAB key or the CTRL-TAB to move past the last column so
that the horizontal scrolling of the grid display will not occur.

STATUS
======

This behavior is by design.
