Can you explain "Cell background?" Do you want to show a bitmap in the grid cell? Mike Gagnon

Hyonos,

Do you mean you want the cell to have a different backgound colour?

If so, change the BackColor property of the column's Text1 object.

my english is awful...
i show you with html code:

<table width=&quot;100%&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot;>
<tr>
<td width=&quot;18%&quot;>record1</td>
<td width=&quot;82%&quot; background=&quot;

background
image is a printer</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>record2</td>
<td background=&quot;

http://www.tek-tips.com/art/email.gif&quot;>and

in this record
is an email</td>
</tr>
</table>

in this case i have a cell with background image and in the cell i can write or insert value or other image...

i hope to be clear ...

I don't hink it is possible with the default VFP grid. Why not just use the SCGrid activex? Mike Gagnon

Hyonos,

Sorry I misunderstood your question. Not your fault.

You want to display a bitmap in a cell of a grid. Unfortunately, you cannot do that with a native VFP control. You might be able to find an ActiveX control that will let you do it.

mmm... i know, whit standard control it is impossible...
but if i create new control ?
i can create my own grid control.. right ?

for example, i can create a control whit:

myGrid
column1
header1
text1
column2
header1
text1 (this if i want add text value)
image1 (this is for backgroung image)

in column2 i can insert backgroung picture (image1) and text value (text1).
the program must process image1 like backgound color and text value must be show over image1

it is possible ?

If you were to create a class using a container and add an image control and a label to the container, you can then add that class to a column as use it as the active control.

The label would need to be on top of the image control.
