   From VB Help (don't know why I didn't see this - have used the grid control   
   for years - yikes!):   
      
      
   MouseCol, MouseRow Properties   
      
   Remarks   
      
   Use these properties programmatically to determine the mouse location. These   
   properties are useful in displaying context-sensitive help for individual   
   cells and testing whether the user has clicked on a fixed row or column.   
      
      
      
   This looks like the way to do it.   
      
   Thank you so much.

   >> Hello,   
   >>   
   >> I am using the MSFlexGrd Control in VB5. I have 1 fixed row and one fixed
