Hi
I need two be able to split a column into 3 cells (or put another way merge 3 columns into one cell) but I know I can't do this today with the WinGrid.
So, an alternative would be to use a single column but split the cell by placing 3 text editor controls in the cell side by side.
Of course, each row might be different!
Anyone know how to do this.
Many thanks in advance.
I don't think there is any way to do this. You would probably need to use 3 columns and maybe use RowLayout or a CreationFtiler to combine the column headers into one header.
Hi Mike
Thanks for your input. Since there seems no obvious way to achieve my initial design goal, here's the problem. We have a number of laboratory results that come infrom various places, some internal sources, some external. However, they fall into two categories: plain text (like an emai) formatted results (low limit, actual result, high limit.) We need to display these in chronological order.
So, the plan was to show on one row the formatted numeric results (3 componenets one in each column) and then on another row the first line of text (or maybe subject matter) for a 'plain text' result without formatting (hence the desire to amalgamate 3 columns into 1.) Of course, being in chronological order there is no way of knowing what the sequence might be so the only way to to format the entire row is based on the data itself.
Further, there is no hierarchy, i.e. the owner of each row is the patient.
Any ideas would be gratefully received.
Many thanks in advance
