VB - Write to a MSFlexGrids (Directly and with Floating Text)

[Tec-Nico]

When I started to search in the forum how to use the MSFlexGrid I found Martin Liss' code to write directly to this control and so I used it for a project I had to hand in.

Anyway, it was difficult for my professor to work with the interface since she was expecting an Excel type one... So I found another code by Martin which showed how to write to the Grid using a floating textbox.

I felt it had a long way to go to be Excel-like, so I thought I could do it and I coded this form. Don't think it is just a mix of both codes of Martin into one form and I am trying to get credit over it. If you pay attention to the three different forms you will find a lot of differences and a couple things that are the same, not just a copy paste.

You can use this code to any form and with any number of MSFlexGrids, just copy the section that says "Floating Text Declarations", the one of "Total Copy" and finally, for each MSFlexGrid control change the events that are under "FlexGrid's Events needed to change" just writing the name of the controls instead of "MSFlexGrid1"

And finally I thank Martin for the two samples that led me into this form.

I would appreciate comments about it if you think it needs something else or you consider it a good work.

P.S. Oops... You are right, Martin... Here I post the sample project. Thanks again!
