Hi William Which control do you use for browsing records on forms? The default dataTableBindingNavigator? If so, have you managed to undock it so it can float? I have the GripStyle set to Visible, but the toolstrip is not to grip and move around. /gustav >>> wdhindman at dejpolsystems.com 25-10-2007 10:24 >>> Shamil ...yes, free!!! ...the express products value has been simply incredible for me ...I've yet to run into anything I could do with Access that I can't find a way to do with one or more of the express products ...and the amount/quality of code/support available on-line is every bit as good ...I still tend to model an app in Access first but I'm now starting to deliver in VS/SQL Server ...and the client sales are soooooo much easier in most cases.
