Flexgrid and right-click...

Is there a simple way to set the active column and row of a flexgrid when you right-click? Since it only seems to set them itself with a left-click.

As it stands, I can loop through each col and row, and check the CellLeft and CellTop properties, along with the RowHeight and ColWidth to see if the mouse is within the cell, but to do this, the active cell must be changed in the loop, and it looks pretty awful. Not to mention that its time consuming as the grid gets bigger.

you can use MouseCol and MouseRow in the MouseUp or MouseDown event to determine the rol / col the user right-clicked in.

Try:

VB Code:

Private Sub MSFlexGrid1_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, x As Single, y As Single)
  Dim lCol As Long, lRow As Long
  
  If Button <> vbRightButton Then Exit Sub
  
  With MSFlexGrid1
    For lRow = 0 To .Rows - 1
      For lCol = 0 To .Cols - 1
        If x >= .ColPos(lCol) And x < (.ColPos(lCol) + .ColWidth(lCol)) And _
           y >= .RowPos(lRow) And y < (.RowPos(lRow) + .RowHeight(lRow)) Then
          Exit For
        End If
      Next
      If lCol < .Cols Then Exit For
    Next
    If lRow < .Rows Then
      .Col = lCol
      .Row = lRow
    End If
  End With
  
End Sub
