- Several days ago I posted a message asking if anyone had information on a
- GRID control (like that distributed with the Visual Basic Professional
- Toolkit) that provided the ability to have character attributes of Forecolor
- and FontSize to be set on a Cell-by-Cell basis at run-time.
-
- I got an unexpected number of responses from people asking me to let them
- know if I find such a control - they want it too.
-
- In fact, I think people might even PAY for such a control!
-
-
- (The original note read:
- Microsoft distributes the GRID control as an enhancement to Visual Basic in
- the Professional Toolkit. It is a very useful control!
-
- Queston: How can the character attributes of forecolor and fontsize be set
- on a CELL by CELL basis?
-
- It is easy to give the entire grid these attributes. However, I can't find
- a way to adjust the attributes on a cell basis. For example, all numbers
- appearing in Column 1 should be in black unless they are negative in which
- case they should appear in red. Or, every 5th row should be printed in a
- bold-face font, other rows printed in a normal font.
-
- Can anyone suggest a way of doing this?)
