I've got a DBGrid (JvDBGrid, to be precise), and I'd like the selected row to be highlighted--while still being editable. Any suggestions about how to do this?
Searching myself, solutions generally seem to include deriving another version of the grid, inside the same unit, to allow access to protected attributes of the class, i.e., declare something like "THackDBGrid=class(TJvDBGrid)" in the interface, and then add code to the OnDrawColumnCell event along the lines of: //got this sample code from http://www.delphi3000.com/articles/article_373.asp?SK= with THackDBGrid(Sender) do begin if DataLink.ActiveRecord = Row - 1 then begin Canvas.Brush.Color := $0088FFFF; {ActiveRowColor for MainGrid} Canvas.Font.Color := clBlack; end else Canvas.Brush.Color := clWindow; {default grid color, set in obj. inspector} DefaultDrawColumnCell(Rect, DataCol, Column, State); end; For me, the only problem with this code is that I don't have access to all "my" grid's properties. TJvDBGrid has a WordWrap property, and I lose WordWrap with the code above, even doing something like adding "WordWrap:=True" to the snippet above. As always, thank you -- Al C. _______________________________________________ Delphi-DB mailing list Delphi-DB@elists.org http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/delphi-db
