Kixforms Listview

Just a quick question to those using kixforms. Is there any known way to make a listview editable by the user? I can't seem to find any property for it, so it's probably not, but just thought I would throw it out here just in case.

listview? sure... not sure it is called listview. think in kf.net the editable listview was called gridview. dang, can't remember the control names.

Re: Kixforms Listview

thinking it more, I think in classic you had to draw a textbox over the subitem to allow editing. might be my memory playing tricks...

Yeah, I might just create a pop-up or textbox like you said, with a double-click. I've never used gridview, perhaps I'll give that a crack too. Thanks for the tips.

hmm... I think I've seen a spreadsheet script somewhere, can't seem to locate it now.
closest is the phone book http://kixforms.net/archive/scripts/phone.kix but obviously that's no sugar.

thinking about editing an item, I wonder will a control lose it's focus if you program it to change by capturing the key inputs and updating the selected subitem accordinly.
might be too resource incentive, but in theory that could work.

Using a gridview is definitely the way to go.

Yep thanks. Gonna roll with the gridview. Found a grid.kix over on the kixforms forum. Its probably the same excel one you're thinking of. Its going pretty well so far.
