SUMMARY

This article shows by example how to create a resizeable grid.

MORE INFORMATION

  1. In the Form Design, drop a grid control onto a form, and place it in the upper-left corner of the form. The easiest way is to add a table to the data environment. Then drag and drop the table from the Data Environment window to the form.

  2. Add the following code to the Resize Event method of the Form:

    thisform.grid1.height=this.height thisform.grid1.width=this.width

  3. Add the following code to the Init Event method of the form:

    thisform.grid1.height=this.height thisform.grid1.width=this.width

    This sizes the grid to the form upon startup,

  4. Run the form, and resize the window. The grid will automatically size to fit.
