My problem is that for the life of me I cannot figure out how to access the actual grid that called the function since in the event handler the "Sender" is the TMenuItem itself. How do I get the grid from which the call originated??? /** * This function gets called whenever the user clicks on * the "Save to Text" menu item for grids. */ void __fastcall TNetAnSaveGridToFileDialogForm::SavetoTextMenuItemClick( TObject *Sender) { //here sender is the "TMenuItem" and not the "TDBGrid" from //which the call orignated... } Any help appreciated!!!

Regards, Francois Hi, Dinamically assign the TMenuItem->Tag property with a value related to the calling grid. Then in the Click Handler check the Sender Tag in order to know the caller grid.
