Formatting a Grid Cell or Grid Row |
Mon, Nov 30 2015 5:32 PM | Permanent Link |
Richard Harding Wise Nutrition Coaching | It appears that you can only change the formatting of a grid cell based on the contents of that cell using TGridColumn's OnCellUpdate event.
Is it possible to change the formatting of a grid cell (or a grid row) based on the contents of another grid cell? Thank you. Richard Harding |

<< It is a data-bound grid. >> I was afraid that you were going to say that. There are some options in this area, but they aren't particularly ideal and involve using a shadow dataset to grab the data that you want. So, for now, the answer is no, you can't do that.

Hi Tim, YES - I was able to get it working using a shadow dataset. It only works for a cell that contains data that can be used as a key to lookup the shadow dataset. I have a grid containing stock details that is sorted on 2 columns (for example, Stock Group and Stock Item) and wished to bold the row when the Stock Group changed. That is not possible, but I can bold the data cell where the Stock Group key changes which satisfies the customer so it was a very helpful idea. Richard |

As you say, the main issue is that there isn't much of a relationship between a grid cell and a dataset row or column. Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
