Hi everyone....I need a little help here, I'll try to explain the best I can...

I have a Table with several items. The Columns on this Table change constantly. It is a TDBGrid, with a ADOQuery, reading a MDB File.

I need to be able to select several rows to another grid (a hidden one), and in th hidden grid be able to duplicate, re-arrange and make modifications to the items, so then I can add to the original table all the new items.

Now let me explain it using the NON-programmer scenario....I have a Table with my ebay items, I have a Field that has the date its going to be listed, so I want to do something like select item 5 and 7, and have a procedure copy those 2 items and create new entries with those items but with different future dates....

And obviously at the end save the table....

Thanks again for the help...
 
Your post contains no question concerning delphi programming. [ponder]

Delphi Rules!
 
For situations like this I'll make an in memory table (I use Absolute DB or kbmMemTable as required) to do those manipulations. No need to create a hidden grid.
 
you can select a record and then copy it to a new record then edit the dates.
