COLUMNS Property

Designer Only

The COLUMNS property provides access to the Designer's Listview Column Editor. Columns may be added, modified, or removed from the listview.

Within the column editor, each current column is displayed in the left hand list. When a column is selected, its properties are shown in the right hand list. The properties are modified just as they are in the properties window. Functions for adding new columns or removing existing columns are also available.

The up and down arrows between the lists allow positioning of the selected column.

The STORE button allows the current listview definition and all columns to be saved with a user specified title. Subsequent forms may then use the LOAD to retrieve the listview definition. LISTVIEW definitions may be deleted by clicking the LOAD button, selecting the user specified title, and then clicking the DELETE button.

Once the listview modifications are complete, clicking the OK button will save the definitions. The CANCEL button will terminate the column editor without saving any changes.

Note that this psuedo property is maintained by the designer. It is not available through GETPROP or SETPROP instructions.
