Hi, I'm wondering if anyone has experience with the Row Select property in a TDBGrid. This much I know - if the option dgRowSelect is set to True, then clicking on a row will highlight that row with a dark color. Also, that row becomes the active row for the dataset, as indicated by the arrow on the left of the grid. (I am not using multiselect.)

However, I've found that I can not get a row to highlight without clicking. I want the highlighting to happen automatically. For example, when the user first enters the grid, the first row should be highlighted! As I'm doing it now, the first row is ACTIVE (the arrow), but NOTHING is highlighted. Also, I am doing searches, and changing the datasets active record, and this scrolls the grid to the matching record, which also becomes the active row (again, the arrow). But here, also, the row is not HIGHLIGHTED!

Can anyone help? How do I get my active row highlighted??

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Rusty
