Dear Geoff,
the problem is that during the construction of the IB_GRID on the form or on
displayng the IB_UPDATEBAR I got the error.

I've tried some situation and i have the exception only when i use IB_GRID,
IB_NAVIGATIONBAR or IB_Update Bar.

for example, the error in IB_GRID is:

Project prova.exe raised exception class EAccessViolation with message
'Access violation at
address 4005C40C in module 'VCL50.BPL'. Read of address FFFFFFFF'. ........

And the debugger stops on the line marked '->' in the file IB_Grid.pas.

..

// Since the VCL makes the assumption that the InPlace editor exists in the
// focused cell if FEditorMode is true it does NOT send a DrawCell() call
for
// the focused cell. But, with IBO, the CanEditShow() method returns false
// in cases where the embedded lookup combo or check box are to be. Thus,
// I still need the DrawCell() call in order to draw these controls/glyphs
// properly. What this hack does is trick the VCL into thinking that there
is
// no InPlace editor so it will send a DrawCell() call for all cells that
have
// been invalidated.
oldFEditorMode := EditorMode;
oldBufRow := DataLink.BufferRecord;
try
THackCustomGrid( Self ).FEditorMode := false;
-> inherited Paint;
finally
..


If i let the program go on, I can read the data of the database, but the
first column
is not written correctly and then again it, moving cursor, the program raise
another
exception and then crash.

With other component I have not any problems.

Any suggestion?

Thank You,
Bye!
Enrico
