Major Datagrid Issues

[Peter Haworth]

Thank you zryip, that fixed both problems.  I had found another solution
which was to set the dgtext to empty.  I initially thought that wouldn't
work since the internal dg storage is not supposed to exist when use
dgNumberOFRecords.  I feel more comfortable with your solution though,
Thanks,
Pete
