I'm replacing an excel spreadsheet with a vb application that uses the datagrid. Is there any equivalent of the conditional formatting in excel that allows you to say for example that dates before a set time are coloured red? The users are really keen on having certain rows coloured you see...

This is what you're after I believe http://www.freevbcode.com/ShowCode.Asp?ID=2266

I've written an application that uses the standard datagrid. Now I've been asked to highlight certain rows in a different colour. Anyone know how to do this? If not anyone know of a free datagrid that would do it?

thanks a lot chris and sunaj, much appreciated.

it's an ado recordset and doesn't have a multifind method. it hadn't actually occurred to me that find might not support multiple fields though so i'll probably do what you suggest and open a new recordset. thanks.

I want to search through a recordset to find a record where customer = ... and custaddress = .... if i use rsCustomers.Find("customer = '....'") it works. How do I add the second condition? I've tried rsCustomers.Find"=("customer = ' ....' and custaddress = '....') and a...

thanks, I'll probably do that as a couple of minutes gap would be acceptable. I figure that's how Outlook works so if it's good enough for them... I'm used to writing in a a 4GL language called Progress and using that you could write a trigger that broadcast a message from the server to anybody...

I'm writing a support desk application for our office. When someone logs a call I'd like to refresh averybody elses screens to reflect the change. I'm using vb6 and sql server 7. The only way I can think of is to use a WinSock control but this seems like an inelegant solution. I've never used VB...

I've followed the MSDN HOWTO: Create a DCOM CLient / Server with Events and hit a problem. When I run the client and the server on the same machine everything goes o.k. When i put the server component onto our NT server I get the following situation Dim MyObj As DCOMDemoEvents_Svr.Class1 Set...

sorry - badly phrased question. I know there is a refresh command but it doesn't seem to do much - it doesn't refresh the data. I suppose I'm really looking for a requery command.

I've got a heirarchical command in my data environment and an MSHFlexgrid that I created by right clicking and dragging the command onto a form. My problem is getting the flexgrid to update when I add a new record. Do I have to create a recordset at run time (I've tried copying the Shape command...

I've got a MSHFlexGrid whose datasource is a hierarchical command. When the user clicks on a particular cell, how do you get hold of the record that was originally used to populate it?

I don't really want to change the column widths, just not open the subrecords. They seem to open automatically which is annoying.

Can you start it with + signs showing rather than -ve's? I've examined the various properties but none look promising. By the way thanks to everyone; I'm writing my first VB app (we normally use other languages) and this site is very helpful as I have no one else in the office to ask. Hope I'll...

How do I use commands that require parameters with the data report builder. i.e if i wanted to report all supportcalls from a particular customer.

thanks, i'm suprosed more people don't know about this.

You know how the list of previous addresses comes up automatically when you type in an adsress, how do you do this? It looks like a combo box but I can't get mine to work like that.
