"Explaination of the Grid Control"

User Friendly, Inc.

        What I have tried to do here is to document the various properties
of the Grid control (including a couple I added), for those who do not
read C.  I am going on the assumption that the properties that appear
in the VB editor are self-evident.  Be sure to let me know if that is
a flawed assumption.  Accordingly, I will be documenting the run-time
properties only.


The following two properties can be retrieved or set to determine or set
the cell in the grid that currently owns focus. You must change these
settings in order for the TEXT, ROWHEIGHT, COLWIDTH, COLALIGNMENT properties
to have meaning.  Each of these operates on the cell that currently owns
focus.

ROW (Int)
        The Row of the Cell that has focus
        This can be both retrieved and set at run-time.

COL (Int)
        The Column of the Cell that has focus
        This can be both retrieved and set at run-time.

TEXT (String)
        The contents of the current cell.
        This can be both retrieved and set at run-time.

ROWHEIGHT (LONG)
        The hight of the row containing the current cell
        This can be both retrieved and set at run-time.
        
COLWIDTH  (LONG)
        The width of the row containing the current cell
        This can be both retrieved and set at run-time.

COLALIGNMENT (Int)
        The column alignment of the column of the current cell
        This can be both retrieved and set at run-time.

CELLSELECTED (BOOL)
        Returns TRUE/FALSE if any cells are/are not currently selected.
        Read-only at run-time

SELSTARTROW (Int)
        The starting row of the selection block
        This can be both retrieved and set at run-time.

SELENDROW (Int)
        The ending row of the selection block
        This can be both retrieved and set at run-time.

SELSTARTCOL (Int)
        The starting column of the selection block
        This can be both retrieved and set at run-time.
        
SELENDCOL (Int)
        The ending column of the selection block
        This can be both retrieved and set at run-time.
        
CLIP (String)
        The currently select text (tab and CR/LF delimited)
        This can be both retrieved and set at run-time.
        Note: This property can be used to retrieve and save delimited
        text files or perform advise links with EXCEL.
        
TOPROW  (Int) (I added this)
        The Top most visible row in the grid.
        This can be both retrieved and set at run-time.
        
LEFTCOL (Int) (I added this)
        The Left most visible column in the grid
        This can be both retrieved and set at run-time.

Note:  I added the above two properties because there was no way to
programatically scroll the grid.  Using these properties, you can force
a particular cell (or just a row or column) to be the visible origin of
the grid.  The top row and left column are contrained by the the number
of fixed rows and columns and the number of remaining rows and columns.
Therefore, you cannot use this to set new titles or to bring the last
row/column to the origin.

Hope this helps!
