Create_Movie_List
Form_Refresh
End Sub




'loads moviedata to cbomovies
Private Sub Create_Movie_List()
Dim strTemp As String
Dim intCount As Integer
Dim intFreeFile As Integer
Dim intInstr As Integer

intCount = 0
intFreeFile = FreeFile

Open MovieData For Input As #intFreeFile

Do
ReDim Preserve S_TagMovieFile(intCount)

Input #intFreeFile, strTemp
intInstr = InStr(strTemp, "|")
S_TagMovieFile(intCount).strMovieName = Left(strTemp, intInstr - 1)
S_TagMovieFile(intCount).dblPrice = Right(strTemp, Len(strTemp) - (intInstr))

cboMovies.AddItem S_TagMovieFile(intCount).strMovieName
intCount = intCount + 1
Loop Until EOF(intFreeFile)
Close #intFreeFile

End Sub
Private Sub Form_Refresh()
Create_Grid
End Sub

Private Sub cmdAddMovie_Click()
If cboMovies.Text = "" Then Exit Sub

grdMovieselect.Col = 1
grdMovieselect.Row = intMovieCount + 1
grdMovieselect.Text = cboMovies.Text
intMovieCount = intMovieCount + 1
grdMovieselect.Rows = intMovieCount + 2

Fill_Movie_grid

End Sub
Private Sub Create_Grid()


grdMovieselect.Rows = 2
grdMovieselect.Cols = 3

grdMovieselect.ColWidth(0) = 5

grdMovieselect.Row = 0
grdMovieselect.Col = 1
grdMovieselect.ColWidth(1) = 1500
grdMovieselect.Text = " Movie Name"


grdMovieselect.Row = 0
grdMovieselect.Col = 2
grdMovieselect.ColWidth(2) = 700
grdMovieselect.Text = " Cost"


End Sub
Private Sub Fill_Movie_grid()
Dim iIndex As Integer

ReDim S_TagMovieFile(0)
With FormVideo
For iIndex = 0 To intMovieCount - 1
ReDim Preserve S_TagMovieFile(iIndex)

.grdMovieselect.Row = iIndex + 1
.grdMovieselect.Col = 1
S_TagMovieFile(iIndex).strMovieName = .grdMovieselect.Text
cboMovies.Text = cboMovies.RemoveItem(iIndex)
Next iIndex

End With

End Sub

I don't understand what it is you're asking, but there is alot you can do to make your life easier when using a FlexGrid Control, for example, you can load text into any Cell using the TextMatrix Method, which allows you to specify the Row and Col, plus you can add an entire row to the Gird in one go, eg. grdMovies.AddItem "Column1" & Chr(9) & "Column2" & Chr(9) & "Etc..".

Code:

---

Private Sub Form_Load()
    Create_Grid
    Create_Movie_List
End Sub

Private Sub Create_Movie_List()
    Dim iFile As Integer
    Dim sData As String
   
    iFile = FreeFile
   
    Open "C:\Movies.txt" For Input As iFile
    grdMovies.Rows = 1
    While Not EOF(iFile)
        Input #iFile, sData
        grdMovies.AddItem Replace(sData, "|", Chr(9))
    Wend
    Close iFile

End Sub

Private Sub cmdAddMovie_Click()
    If Len(Text1) = 0 Then Exit Sub
    grdMovies.AddItem Text1 & Chr(9) & Text2
End Sub

Private Sub Create_Grid()
    With grdMovies
        .Rows = 2
        .Cols = 2
        .FixedCols = 0
        .FixedRows = 1
        .ColWidth(0) = 1500
        .ColWidth(1) = 700
        .TextMatrix(0, 0) = " Movie Name"
        .TextMatrix(0, 1) = " Cost"
    End With
End Sub
