You can specify the current cell in code, or the user can change it at run time using the mouse or the arrow keys. Cells can be edited interactively, by typing into the cell, or programatically." There are two errors in this paragraph. First, it states that the control can hold pictures. Unfortunately, the control cannot hold pictures. Secondly, the word programmatically is misspelled; it should be spelled programmatically. STATUS ====== This documentation error was corrected in Visual Basic version 5.0. MORE INFORMATION ================ Steps to Reproduce Problem -------------------------- From the Help menu on the DBGrid control, select Display, and in the secondary window, choose the DBGrid Control topic. The second paragraph under the Note contains the incorrect entries.
