Scroll Line Into View in a Datagrid

[Ray]

Pete - thanks for the clarification.  I definitely have a datagird table 
then, not a form.  I'm going to experiment recreating similar datagrid 
tables from scratch to see if I can resolve these scrolling problems.  
I'll post something after doing so.

Thanks,
