Tim,

Can I ask if there's anything special that I need to consider when creating a TGrid instance at runtime? I am designing a very basic component that I create when needed at runtime. The component descends from a TPanel and creates its own TGrid (which it "owns") to display information. I am seeing some very strange exceptions in respect of "attaching events". Do you have any sample code?

Thanks
Mark

PS. Release one of our product (Castrum Spaces) has gone down exceptionally well with "warm clients". Will roll out to more shortly. EWB continues to impress.

There isn't any difference in the framework between creating a grid at
design-time vs. run-time.  At run-time, everything is essentially created
dynamically, even the controls that are placed on a form at design-time.
The only difference is whether you write the code or the compiler emits the
code for you.  You do need to set some basic properties such as
height/width/parent, but that's about it.

What exceptions/problems are you seeing ?

Fantastic.  You'll have to post some screen shots, if possible.

Thanks,

If you have any other questions, please let me know.

Sorry Tim. I've got around this in a slightly different manner now, due to time constraints. However, I'll try and look back at it over the next week or so. It was definitely an issue with "unable to attach event" or something similar. Sorry to be so vague.

I'll do better. We have a public beta out shortly and I'll drop a login up on the forum.

Thanks again - Mark

No problem.
