Hello,
I have a bound wingrid(bound to ms access database), on a form that correctly allows updates, deletes, inserts. However, when i change the style of the a column to URL through the designer, the cells in that column can no longer be updated. When i attempt to add a new a new row, the cell turns a dark blue color. I am not sure what i am doing wrong, but i would love the the user to be able to update this list of urls, and also have the ability to click the cell to browse to the associated url.
i am using 8.2.20082.1000.
Thanks,
Rick
Hi Rick,
How would this work? When the user clicks the link, does the cell go into edit mode, or does it launch the URL? It can't do both at the same time.
Hi Mike,
Sorry for my late reply, I have been out of the office. In MS Access 2007, when you enter a cell that has a data type of hyperlink(via the tab key) it selects the entire contents of the of cell and allows editing. If you click on the cell with the mouse, it launchs the URL.
That Works just fine. Thanks.
Okay.... instead of setting the Style propertyon the column, place an UltraFormattedTextEditor control on the form.
Set it's TreatValueAs to URL.
Set the columns EditorControl to the UltraFormattedTextEditor.
