ShowInput Property

Applies To: Grid

Description

This property specifies whether or not the cells in a Grid are displayed using their associated input objects.

The ShowInput property is either a single Boolean value that applies to all the cells in a Grid, or it is a vector whose elements are mapped to individual cells via the CellTypes property. A value of 0 means that the corresponding cell is displayed normally. A value of 1 indicates that the cell is displayed using its associated input object, as it is when it is the current cell. ShowInput is relevant to cells displayed using Combo and Button objects.

The example below illustrates the appearance of a Grid in which ShowInput is set to 0 for the Job Title column and 1 for the Region and Permanent columns.

The appearance of the same Grid but with ShowInput set to 0 throughout is illustrated below:
