A return of the "show in contents" button would be most helpful. That would allow me to find where a page is located in the documentation regardless of how I arrived there.

The "show in contents" is only available for the programmer's guide part of the docs. The API docs do not have such a link. I probably found the page from the PPGEvent page.. Good point, the GridData guide should probably link to the examples. I'll check if the docs people can update it.

Also, how did you get to this page? There are no feeding links to the page and the 'show in contents' button isn't available to show the page in the table of contents. The GridData page doesn't have a direct link to the examples either.

Jscript doesn't use the PPGEvent object. Using traditional Jscript logic of putting the parameter name in the callback function's name doesn't seem to work. That is, if the grid parameter is called "data", then data_OnClicked() doesn't get called when the button in the griddata is clicked. Same problem if I use the button name in the callback. Example: if a cell is given the value of "button" and it is clicked, then button_Onclicked() is never called.

Check for the siGridDataOnButtonClicked eventContext. With siColumnFile, you can do a GridData::SetFileColumnDef. You can specify File/Folder, StartupPath and file type filter. You can check the GridData (GridDataExampleCPP) example in the default SDK workgroup for some sample code.

While doing so I noticed a plethora of options to dress up a grid data cell. The items that catch my attention are siColumnButton and siColumnFile. In the case of siColumnButton, are there any callbacks available when the button is clicked? Otherwise, what's the point? In case of siColumnFile, why does the popup dialog ask for a folder and not a file? Any way to get the folder dialog to be a file dialog AND default to opening to the path specified in the cell? Thanks, Matt
