mshflexgrid, highlight selected row

[hansu]

I'm stuck with the following problem:
When the user selects a row in a hierarchical flexgrid (flgReport) I retrieve a value from the selected row which is stored in Col 1.

I did it that way in the click event:

Private Sub flgReport_Click()
Dim strNum$
flgReport.Col = 1
strNum = flgReport.Text
End Sub

I'd like to keep the selected row highlighted as long as the user doesn't move to another row. But when I use the click event or also the mousedown event the row is only highlighted during clicking. Is there a way to set the properties to solve that problem?

hansu,

Do not use flgReport.Col = 1
Use strNum = flgReport.TextMatrix(1,flgReport.row)

Sorry, should be:

Use strNum = flgReport.TextMatrix(flgReport.row,1)

Thanks vladk
Works fine that way.

I am returning to this thread because the following is in the same context:
As mentionend above the mshflexgrid is bound to a hierarchical recordset. I want the user to be able to select rows of the parent recordset but not the rows of the child recordset. Does anybody know a way to prevent the selection of the rows bound to the child recordset?
Thanks for your assistance.
