Entering Text In MSFLEXGRID During Runtime

[ProGMT]

Hi. I'm a fairly new programmer in VB and had a question about adding text to a msflexgrid during runtime. Heres the situation. I have a msflexgrid with 20 rows and 10 columns, and what i want to do is be able to add text to each cell during runtime by entering the cell and typing. Like I said im fairly new at vb so any information would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, heres some crude code that may get you started. This will type whatever you type into the cell that s selected. However, the big prob is that if you type <Backspace> or something like that it just comes up as a non-displayable character. That is, it doesnt delete the last character as you wold expect backspace to do.

However, i did say it was crude, so it may get you on the right track.

I'm still looking though, you would have thought you can just enter text into a field of a flexgrid.

Perhaps it should be called MSNotSoFlexGrid

Private Sub MSFlexGrid1_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)
MSFlexGrid1.Text = MSFlexGrid1.Text & Chr(KeyAscii)
End Sub

Well You Got Me Started. Just Needed A Little Help. I Changed A Little Around In Your Code To Get The Backspace To Work. But I Appreciate The Help, Since You Got Me Started.

Here Is What I Did

Private Sub MSFlexGrid1_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)

If Chr(KeyAscii) = Chr(8) Then
MSFlexGrid1.Text = Mid(MSFlexGrid1.Text, 1, Len(MSFlexGrid1.Text) - 1)
Exit Sub
End If
MSFlexGrid1.Text = MSFlexGrid1.Text & Chr(KeyAscii)

End Sub
