Hi, I want to have a custom column with a user control that floats when activated like the window in an embedded combo box does. I used your examples and was able to embed my custom user control, but when it activates (I hit space) it sizes the column to the height and width of the user control. I would like to have the user control actually float on top like a combo box does when you dropmit down. My user control will have multiple controls. I will actually have several custom user controls placed in multiple custom columns. These will represent compound data the may not always be used I will already be using multiple level hierarchies in the caraway. The goal is to make a green screen replacement keyboard centric data input screen. The idea with the user controls is to let the person doing the data entry drop Into these sub levels when needed. Since these sub types are needed infrequently, rather than fill up a row with columns that aren't used most of the time, I want to be able to fold up the functionality like this. The structure I am mapping is not only complex, but the columns available changes depending on the customer and the type of order being placed. Thanks formthe help

Hi,

 You need to use a popup to achieve your goal in this case.

Kind regards,
