Column Click

[DJK]

I asked this before but never got a fully working answer

How can I determine what column I click in a grid when I use rowselect ?

What are you using for a control, that has an OnRowSelect Event?

a SMDBGrid, but for the purpose of the question, this behaves the same as a DBGrid.

So that when you click a cell it selects the entire row in the grid...

[douglas]

Right, my concern was whether or not there was a OnRowSelect event in your control, because there is not in a Standard TDBGrid. So, is there, if not, what events are there in that grid?

Now I understand what you mean Sorry if I mentioned it confusing Its not a event, it's a property, and one which the default grid also has, in the options section: rowselect...

Again sorry if I sounded confusing!

I just meant I use that option as for my problem it makes a world of difference..

[douglas]

it looks like the OnCellClick event gives you the column

Hey

Yes it does, IF you do NOT use rowselect
Cause if you do cellclick doesn't register correctly...

[mshkolnik]

Use the OnMouseDown (or OnMouseUp) event and convert the X/Y coordinates to cell corrdinates (row/column)

No other way.

easy...
i use in sometimes

procedure TFasist.stggMouseUp(Sender: TObject; Button: TMouseButton;
Shift: TShiftState; X, Y: Integer);
var
ACol, ARow: Integer;
begin
stgg.MouseToCell(x, y, ACOl, ARow);
if Arow <= stgg.Fixedrows-1 then
begin
// clicked on a fixed column.....
end;
end;

That grid looks good, but only the nextgrid is free... the DB aware grid is payment only
