Memo field in DBgrid

[StuM]

I would like to see the first 15 characters of a memo field in a DBgrid... I tried the example in thread102-822409. But can't get a DBisam table to work using the OnGetText event. Has anybody tried this and made it work ?

When you say you can't get it to work do you mean you get compilation errors or run time errors? It might help if you could post your OnGetText event code. Remember to use TGML so that it easy for us to read like this:

// This is my OnGetEvent
...

IIRC, the default behavior in a grid is to only show the first part of a memo. In order to show all of a memo, you have to write your own OnDrawDataCell event handler that will show more of the memo.
