Although I've done a lot of work with DBGrids I've not up until now
ever had need to use a TStringGrid, and as much as they are alike I'm
surprised at many of the differences...some of which have me a little
baffled!
For example, although one can set the columns up so that the user
can alter their individual widths at runtime, I have not been able to find a
way of storing this info back into an ini-file so that these settings can be
retained and used again in future sessions. Is this possible? If so how,
because the StrGrid.Col[0] doesn't have a width property...only a default
width that sets all of them the same including the fixed column!
Also, I was under the impression I could store a stringgrid with any
string info it's cells contain, including that in it's fixed columns, to a
text file and then load the stringgrid back up with that same info directly
from the file. It seems the individual column text can be saved that way
but not all in one file. How is this handled?
Finally, Because this particular grid will be used by a restaurant
manager to set her waitress's working hours, I need to be able to print a
copy of the grid out in landscape format after she has made all the entries
for a particular week. I don't want a print screen because that would show
the entire form...just the grid itself. How can this best be accomplished?
