DBGrid Row Selection Issue

[bazzer747 25]

Hi

I have two forms, each with a dbgrid showing items from different tables. On one grid when I select a row itrow highlights and the rows showing in the grid remain unchanged, as does the location of the row I selected. Using the up/down arrows moves the selected row up/down.

 

On the other grid when I select a row it immediately re-positions that selected row to the middle of the visible rows. Using the up/down arrows the row selected remains exactly in the vertical centre.

 

In the properties I can't see any differences between the two dbgrids, but would really like both dbgrids to behave the same way, whichever one of the above I don't mind.

 

Any thoughts would help.

Found the answer!

When I click on a cell in the grid I do a LocateEx on the fields value, this changes the record pointer which is causing the selected row to reposition itself in the centre. Not sure why this is, though. However, I replaced the LocateEx with a Lookup (which doesn't alter the record pointer) and all works as it should do now.
