Well... you had enough time to solve alreadyRoberto Lopez wrote:Nop!rathinagiri wrote:Are you by any way deleting and inserting the whole column?
A LOT EASIER
When you navigate cells using keyboard (left and right arrows) you 'know' your current column position and your next position (depending on left or right key was pressed).
The only thing that you must do is set the width of the current column to zero and then change the position to the new one.
When you go from right to left, you must reverse the operation.
10 minutes of coding

Great. Great. Great. 
I thought of various alternatives, but could not find out the trick.

East or West HMG is the Best.
South or North HMG is worth.
...the possibilities are endless.

The first thing that came in my mind, after reading the above, was:Roberto Lopez wrote: The only thing that you must do is set the width of the current column to zero and then change the position to the new one.
"This is Houdini's way to do programming!" -
And then, almost immediately i had my "epiphany" , since I realized that the major part of every UI and especially GUI (and more especially, WIN GUI) is based on optical tricks.
Tricks that produce a pseudo-reality which just mimics the real-reality and tries to fool users with such cheap (though best selling) tricks.
In fact, GUIs are pure "Illusions-machines" that transform the 'zero' into 'something' and vise-versa. The sure thing with these
"Illusion-machines" is that they "make it" very well. (and MiniGUI belongs to this successful gang, of course).
- BTW, did you, all good people here, see Avatar (the movie)? Sure you did..
The Illusionary GUI of a virtual Life in all its majesty.!
What else, a poor (mini)GUI programmer, might have dream .

Hola todos
Excelente trabajo, aunque note que ahora no es posible mover las columnas, antes yo podia "coger" con el mouse una columna y moverla a otro lado ahora esto no es posible...
GRACIAS
Hello all
Excellent work, but note that this is not possible to move the columns, before I could "catch" a column with the mouse and move it somewhere else now this is not possible ...
THANK YOU

We're just waiting for confirmation that our observations of the whole universe is an illusion.
