Hello all.
I first wanted to say how much of a value all the folks in these groups have
been to me. I definitely appreciate your input and help in the past.

Ok so now onto why I'm writing :)
I have a a form defined with several datagrid controls on the form. The
Form is representing a Document style layout so, some of the controls go
outside the normal bounds of a windows viewing area.

I was able to enable scrolling by setting the autoscrollmargins and turning
on autoscroll. However the problem I am seeing is that if I have scrolled my
window down to bring a particular grid control into view, then I click into
that grid control, my window pops back up to the top and so I keep having to
scroll my window back down and re-click and everytime it pops back up to the
top until after the 3rd time I do this....Why 3 times is beyond me, but on
the 3rd time doing so, my form will stay positioned where I first have it set.

But then as soon as I move to a new row...here we go again.

So, can anyone please tell me how to make my scrolled window stay in the
position I have scrolled it to while I work with the visible controls.

Thanks, so much for any advise
