Thanks for this. I can't seem to get it work as documented. I
have columns as so:
column1<tab> column2<tab> column3
I set the Width of the field to 600, tabStops to 200, vgrid and
hgrid to true.
This displays 3 columns as expected, however, the middle column's
data exceeds the width of the column, but instead of truncating
as documented, it overflows into the third column. From the
online help:
Any text in a column is truncated when it reaches the right edge
of the column. To show the entire contents of the column, drag
over the text to select it. If text at the end of a line does not
have a tab following it--that is, if it's the last column in the
field--it is not truncated.
I believe that's consistent with Excel.
You can either set the last tabstop to a high number like 9999 to
move the column line out of the way, or put " " into each item of a
new last column to get the truncation.
Not sure what's happening with your middle column; here I get the
columns truncated when as soon as I set the hGrid and vGrid
properties.
Thanks Richard, got it working now!
All the Best
Dave
