Hey All,
I'm new and I have a couple of questions concerning the MSFlexGrid Control in VB6. Please reply if you have any info on any or all of these questions. Thanks.
1) Sorting
I have tried everything to sort, and it sorts but it puts the sorted items at the bottom and the blank spaces at the top. Is there any way to stop it from doing this?
2) Saving/Opening
I need to open the grid within the project. Is there any way to save the data in my grid and then when I come back for it to open with the data in the correct places and stuff? I'm using the Common Dialog Control but it's not working for me at all.
3)Printing
Is there any way to just print the grid, and not the whole form? Is there anyway to print just the fields with text in them?
Please guys, if you have any info on any of these problems, contact me. Thanks again.

Hi Traci
The Sort problem sounds as though you are selecting the whole column rather than just the records, which can result in blanks first, then records.
The Sort property is:
MSFlexGrid1.Sort = value
value
0 None
1 Generic Ascending(guesses whether string or number)
2 Generic Descending
3 Numeric Ascending(strings are converted to numbers)
4 Numeric Descending
5 String Ascending, case insensitive
6 String Descending, case insensitive
7 String Ascending, case sensitive
8 String Descending, case sensitive
9 Custom, uses the Compare event to compare rows
I hope this is helpful.
The FlexGrid can be a tricky beast at the best of times.
GRAHAM :)
