Hello IBOler,

I want to display a customer's cashflow in a IB_Grid where negative
values should be displayed in red color. Here is what I've tried (C++
syntax):

in IB_Grid::GetCellProps() :

if ( ARow == 0 )
return;

CashFlowQuery->BufferRowNum = IB_Grid->DataRow[ARow];
TIB_Column* column = IB_Grid->GridFields[IB_Grid->DataCol[ACol]];

if ( column->FieldName == "CREDIT" )
{
if ( column->AsDouble < 0 )
AFont->Color = clRed;
else
AFont->Color = clBlack;
}

This gives weird results. But when I change the line

if ( column->AsDouble < 0 ) to
if ( CashFlowQuery->BufferFieldByName ("CREDIT")->AsDouble < 0 )

everything works as expected.

What am I doing wrong ?

Many thanks in advance.
Mario
