I tried this with SQL server 7 (sorry, I don't have 2000), and couldn't reproduce the
error. Sorry. You might try searching mers.com or groups.google.com for the exact
error message that you get. Maybe someone else has ran into this.

PS: if you don't use a client side cursor, then you won't get smooth scrolling in the
DBgrid. You will get that hoaky scrollbar where the scroll butt is at the top, in the
middle, or at the bottom, with no in betweens. For some people. Smooth scrolling is
important enough to use client side cursors.
