Thread: Datagrid and the sortable property

Datagrid and the sortable property
Posted: 06 Mar 07 12:17 AM

Hi all,

I have a datagrid I am populating dynamically so it will not set the sortable property at design

. I have tried it in the code in many locations as you can see in this code. It is a sub routine for datagrid population. It follows Ryans code but i've customized it for our install:

Sub PopUDataGrid(sSql)
Dim fld, col, i, rsTest

if (grdTest.Columns.Count > 0) then
for i = 0 to grdTest.Columns.Count - 1
grdTest.Columns.Item(0).Delete
next
end if

' grdTest.Sortable = True ' First Test Location
grdTest.sql.Text = sSql
' grdTest.Sortable = true ' Second Test Location
grdTest.Refresh
grdTest.Sortable = true ' Third Test Location
set rsTest = grdTest.recordset

for each fld in rsTest.Fields
set col = grdTest.Columns.add(fld.type)
col.FormatType = 0
col.FieldName = fld.name
col.caption = fld.name
if fld.name = "AccountID" then
col.caption = "Account#"
col.width = 75
elseif fld.name = "accountname" then
col.caption = "Account Name"
col.width = 250
elseif fld.name = "BAOID" then
col.caption = "BackUpAdminId"
col.width = 85
elseif fld.name = "AOName" then
col.caption = "Administrator"
col.width = 150
elseif fld.name = "OrganizationID" then
col.caption = "Org ID"
col.width = 40
elseif fld.name = "RelationshipID" then
col.caption = "RelID"
col.width = 60
elseif fld.name = "AccountStatus" then
col.Caption = "Account Status"
col.width = 50
elseif fld.name = "STARTTIME" then
col.caption = "Time of Import"
col.width = 135
end if
next

' grdTest.Sortable = True ' Last Test Locations
grdTest.ReadOnly = True
grdTest.RowSelect = True
grdTest.refresh
set rsTest = nothing
End Sub

The grid is still not sortable

Thanks for the help ML

You have the RowSelect marked True.. You can't have it sortable with the row select = true

Thanks for the tip RJ, but no joy

! The grid is still un-sortable unless I do it in script with pick lists and code. Anything else I need to be doing to get the sortable property to work properly?

Thanks ML

You have this........

grdTest.Sortable = True ' Last Test Locations
grdTest.ReadOnly = True

grdTest.RowSelect = True

grdTest.refresh
set rsTest = nothing
End Sub

in your code you posted.. if you change this to = False then the sort should work

Specify the grdTest.Keyfield property (probably should be accountid)

Just to ensure folks are not misinformed: RowSelect has nothing to do with a grid being sortable.
