Hi.

I'm using a DB grid (in unbound mode) with 3 columns. The user can enter
data into column two and three (but not column one).

In the first column, I'm displaying values as a prompt to the user. I have
LOCKED the column to stop entry, but would really like to stop the user
clicking/tabbing/returning into the first column.

Can anybody suggest ways of doing this with DBGRID (unbound, if that makes
any difference!).

Thanks.

      If grdDetail.Columns(grdDetail.COL).Locked = True Then
         grdDetail.COL = 1  'Some column that's not locked, or some other
control, or whatever
      End If

If you  have the upgraded Apex TDBGrid then

TDBGrid1.Columns(0).AllowFocus = False

Unfortunately this does not work with the cut down version that comes with
VB
