Help with reading contents of a grid cell

Post by bluebird »

Dear Friends od g HMG

I have so much to learn. Recent problem is failure to read contents of a GRID that has been loaded with numbers

I have tried the following code to GET the values off the grid but they return Nils even though I can see the real
values by clicking on the cells.

The grid and the code to read values are shown below. As you can see I have tried different ways for b and c to no avail.

cimage is the name of an image control like cImage:="ImageNo"+str(nImageNo,1)

b:= setproperty("Win_2",cImage,"row",Getproperty("Full_Composite_Image","Grid_Assignment","value(nI,3)"))
c:= setproperty("Win_2",cImage,"col",Getproperty("Full_Composite_Image","Grid_Assignment","cellex(nI,3)"))

msgdebug("What is the values of a and b",a,b) // returns NIl,Nil



DEFINE GRID Grid_Assignment
ROW 120
COL 230
WIDTH 290
HEIGHT 340
VALUE Nil
WIDTHS {40,55,55,70,70 }
HEADERS {"Img","Row","Col","Width","Height"}
FONTNAME "Arial"
FONTSIZE 11
TOOLTIP ""

END GRID
Thanks for looking at my post

Try:

Code: Select all

b := setproperty ( "Win_2" , cImage , "row" , Getproperty ( "Full_Composite_Image" , "Grid_Assignment" , "value" , nI , 3 ) )
c := setproperty ( "Win_2" , cImage , "col" , Getproperty ( "Full_Composite_Image" , "Grid_Assignment" , "cellex" , nI , 3 ) )

The solution for memvar c:=Getproperty ( "Full_Composite_Image" , "Grid_Assignment" , "cellex" , nI , 3 ) worked very well thanks edk

New surprise though! If I load the grid with sets of numeric memvars then use
Getproperty ( "Full_Composite_Image" , "Grid_Assignment" , "cellex" , nI , 3 ) )

I get back character values instead of the numeric ones that I loaded.

Can anyone explain why, and how I can get back the numbers instead of characters?

Thanks

you only want what's on each cell
have you try
theline := Win_2.Grid_Assignment.item(Win_2.Grid_Assignment.value)
it returns an array with the values of each row, and it doesent matters whitch type they are.
