Mark, Actually just realised the validation concept doesn't work on the beforeupdate either simply because I get the validation error, click ok, it returns me back to the cell but then I just have to click in another cell to evade the validation. …
-
Mark, Just thinking out loud here without attempting to try this in the lab (because this is way too dangerous to do this at home! :-)), but what if you allowed a single period to pass through your validation logic (BeforeUpdate) and then in your A…
-
Mark, Does your PosChanging logic work if the user immediately leaves the SRP EditTable or if the user does something to commit the data in the form (e.g., executes the WRITE event or executes the CLICK event of an OK button )? Also, I agree with …
-
Mark, The chicken has always come before the egg. The order of events is as follows: * BeforeUpdate * AfterUpdate * PosChanging * PosChanged This assumes you have the events qualified as synchronous. Your best bet is to manage validation i…

Hi James, There is no easy way to allow you to track this issue. Our bug/project management systems, JIRA, does not provide the ability to add emails that our outside of our licensed user accounts. There are plug-ins that are supposed to provide th…

James, I cannot seem to get the Thumbnail layout to work so I believe this is a bug, or improperly documented property. I have entered this into our issue tracking system. For future reference it has been assigned an ID of OLE-67.
-
James, I will look into this but I might need to ask you for more information. We have other customers who have done exactly what you are doing and I am almost 100% certain they are using the Thumbnail layout. Are you using RowsToRecords? If not, …
-
James, First off, good looking window! Second, I now understand what you are referring to. The cell border itself is not preserved when the SRP EditTable loses focus but the Foreground and Background colors are. I believe this is intentional but I…
-
Hi James, My guess is that this is really a slightly different problem. The SelectionStyle property will certainly keep your formatting for the cell when the EditTable loses focus. I just tested to confirm. What I think is probably happening is tha…

Colin, I apologize for the confusion. But this issue is exactly why we created the wiki. Only one person could maintain the .CHM help file and it was a chore to keep current, even more so to distribute. This is also why the newer versions of the SR…
-
Colin, What online help are you referring to? Are you going to this page? I don't see any commas used in these examples. Also, please read the section on Conversion Pattern very carefully. There are caveats when using implicit formatting.
-
Dan, In case it will help you along, here is a routine that ships with FrameWorks that we use to help with this kind of management: Function Transfer_EditTable_Data(SourceEditTable, TargetEditTable, ArrayFlag, UpdateCellEdit) /******************…
-
Hi Dan, OpenInsight does not provide a way to naturally bind database columns to ActiveX controls. So you have to manage this on your own. For SRP EditTable controls, the most common approach is to keep an invisible OI edit table control on the for…
-
Colin, I believe this is related to another problem that has been reported to us (by email, not on the forum). We are working on a fix for the 3.0.4 version of the SRP EditTable control. When we have this ready I would like to send you a release ca…
-
Kevin, If I read Colin correctly, he is NOT having any problems with the SRP EditTable...just the opposite. He just wants some assurance that if he commits himself to using the SRP EditTable in this situation that there will not be any known roadbl…
-
Dan, Depending on how fancy you want the UI to behave I am confident you can make something work. You could trap the OnClick event and check to see if the Ctrl or Shift keys were presed. If so, that would be a signal that the user wants to select …
-
Hi Dan, Alas, no. It is a feature, among others, that we would like to implement but it just has not risen to prominence on our list. Are you looking to emulate the ability to select any range of cells, or are you looking to do something more spec…
-
Adam, Are you using the RowsToRecords property? If so, what value are you setting?
-
Hi Phil, This is a good question. This issue is one that occasionally comes up but it is not well publicized. In short, the problem is that your client's system has the default system font set to a size which is larger than normal. All SRP controls…
-
Colin, Thanks for testing that. I wasn't referring to the ScrollBarsVisible property but it is good to know that it doesn't really change anything. I was just trying to see if the problem occurs only when the SRP EditTable is populated with data bu…
-
Colin, We have duplicated the problem. In fact, we have verified that this problem existed since at least 3.0.0 (we are currently at 3.0.2). We do not know if this existed with the 2.x version of the product. Maybe you can confirm something for me…
-
Bryan, One approach is to set the CellProtection property to "Read Only". This still allows you to select from the dropdown but prevents unwanted entries. The only drawback is that it does not pass through the keystroke being entered and attempt to…
-
Mark, Always glad to see when the pilot catches his own error. Did you ever figure out what I was trying to recommend? Whether you understood me or not, I think you ended up following my suggestion to some degree.
-
Mark, Make the same call to the other table and it works as expected. By "other" table you are referring to the ReportTable with the identical configuration? As a way of troubleshooting the situation did you modify your code so that the identica…
-
Mark, Would you be so kind as to post a screen shot of what you are seeing? I think I am a bit confused as to what you are getting versus what you are expecting. Also, your setup code would be handy so I can compare.
-
Mark, It does appear that the ColumnCheckBoxAlignment property is not working. I have created a support ticket for this: OLE-86. In the meantime, does the ColumnList property do what you want? If you set attribute 16 to the alignment value you wan…
-
Mark, I might be able to dig into this and have a better reply by the time you read this, but I wanted to quickly confirm something. Are you saying that this used to work with an older version of the control but now it is not?
-
Colin, No, this is not a supported feature.
-
Mark, Ah..in that case, no. Only Preview mode provides this kind of display.
-
Mark, By "normal" do you mean no line mark delimiters of any kind? Are you looking for word-wrapping?
