Set a cell selection in TStringGrid

[Phillip Garnes]

How do I do it programatically? Or, for that matter, how do I determine
which cell is the selected one? BTW, I tried to understand the
explanation for TCustomGrid.Selection in the on-line Help but I'm left
puzzled. What's a TGridCoord ? Can someone give an example?

Just set the StringGrid's Row and Col properties and call
StringGrid.SetFocus.

Hi Ken, try this

to select Cell[2,3] you have to set the selection-property of the grid.
MyGrid.Selection := tGridRect(Rect(2,3,2,3));

hope this helps

If you only need to do single cell selection:

StringGrid.Col := 2;
StringGrid.Row := 1;

For multiple cell selection:

var
GridRect: TGridRect;
begin
GridRect.Top := 1;
GridRect.Left := 1;
GridRect.Right := 3;
GridRect.Bottom := 2;
StringGrid1.Selection := GridRect;
end;
