Hi,

I am currently using a TIB_Cursor in combination with a TIB_CursorGrid.

I have tried to set the "FieldProperty" as well as the "ColumnAttributes" a
number of different ways, but they are not behaving as documented or
expected. As I have tried setting numerous "Field Properties" I will only
mention one of them here, and one "Column Attribute" so the email is as
short as possible.

Field Property:

I have tried to set the Visible property as follows:

(1) I have tried setting this property on the TIB_Connection, using the
Object Inspector
R_IB=FALSE
But it did not work.

(2) I have tried setting this property on the TIB_Cursor, using the Object
Inspector
R_IB=FALSE
But it did not work.

(3) I have tried using the TIB_Cursor Editor - Query Forms - Field Property
- Visible
But it did not work.

(4) I have used the following function(s) to set this Field Property in the
code

crsCVDBCursor->FieldsDisplayWidth->LinkValues["R_ID"] = 0;
crsCVDBCursor->FieldsDisplayWidth->LinkValues["R_CREATED_BY"] = 0;

It is the only way it will work. However, it is not very efficient way of
doing things.


Column Attributes:

I have tried to set the Boolean attribute for a field so that the
TIB_CursorGrid will display this field as a CheckBox.

(1)I have tried setting this Attribute on the TIB_Connection -
ColumnAttributes, using the Object inspector
R_SHARED=BOOLEAN=0,1
But it did not work.

(2)I have tries setting this Attribute on the TIB_Cursor - ColumnAttributes,
using the Object inspector
R_SHARED=BOOLEAN=0,1
But it did not work.

(3) I have tried using the TIB_Cursor Editor - Query Forms -
ColumnAttributes - BOOLEAN
But it did not work.

(4) I have tried using the following function(s) to set this
ColumnAttributes in the code as per the documentation.

crsCVDBCursor->ColumnAttributes->LinkValues["R_SHARED"] =
IB_BOOLEAN;

it did not work so I tried:


crsCVDBCursor->ColumnAttributes->LinkParamValue["R_SHARED"][IB_BOOLEAN] =
"0,1";

it did not work so I tried:

crsCVDBCursor->FieldByName("R_SHARED")->AttributeParams[IB_BOOLEAN]
= "0,1";

Thus, I have not been able to get The ColumnAttribute BOOLEAN to behave as
required.


Thank you

Daniel
