I have one grid working the way I want. Users have to use F2 to start
editing a cell.
IB_Query.RequestLive=True
DataSource.AutoEdit=False
IB_Grid.gnF2Edits=True
IB_Grid.gnF2ToggleEditor=True
IB_Grid.PreventEditing=False
I THINK this is all that does it... but I can't make another grid behave the
same way. All query and grid properties appear to be identical but in this
second grid (depending on how the above properties are set) I get either no
response from F2 at all to start editing OR I can overtype cell contents
with no protection.
Anyone know what other property I need to set to make F2 the gateway to
editing?
