VB6 MsFlexGrid Cell Border

[acjeff]

Can I set borders for a cell or a row by VB code? How?

You cannot change individual cell border as far as I know. You can use the properties dialog box for the grid to change all of the cell borders from Inset to None etc, however.

Another question: when I click on the heading row (row 0), it select row 1 automatically. Why is that? How to make it not happen? I use SelectionMode=flexSelectionByRow. I tried using flexSelectionFree and the result is the same.

You cannot select the heading row, that's why the first row is automatically selected when you select it. You can detect clicks on it, the index will come in as 0, but you cannot select it.

What I am doing is I am writing the sort record function. When users click any one heading of a column, all flexgrid records will be sorted by that specified column.

When I tried this:

If fgInventory.Row = 0 Then
'do sorting here

However, everytime I click on a cell of heading row, it returns row = 1, instead of 0. I just cannot catch the row 0.

So what can I do next?

Try setting focus to another control in the MouseDown Event.

If MSFlexGrid1.MouseRow = 0 Then
SomeOtherControl.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If


Two strings walk into a bar. The first string says to the bartender: 'Bartender, I'll have a beer. u.5n$x5t?*&4ru!2[sACC~ErJ'. The second string says: 'Pardon my friend, he isn't NULL terminated'.

Use the MouseRow property. It returns zero for the column headers.

acjeff, take a look at faq222-3262 MS Flexgrid Tips and Tricks, it has some good information.
