Hi Roger, In fact you have to create the columns first as it was discussed in this interesting tread: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg127457.html
<http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg127457.html>So you have to create a column "State" and a column "Code" in your grid and then you could populate it with the code you pick in the doc. Use the dgText[true] when you import data from a text file for example and if you would like to avoid to import the first line of the text if it represents the column headers. If you use set the dgText [ firstLineContainsColumnNames ] of group "DataGrid 1" to theText, you will obtain in the Grid: State Code state code ALABAMA AL ALASKA AK If you use set the dgText of group "DataGrid 1" to theText, the Grid will contain: State Code ALABAMA AL ALASKA AK 2010/7/10 Roger Guay <[email protected]> > Many thanks to all who responded to my previous post.
