I think it is the way I go about it. I set the dgProps["column names"] to a
subset of the actual columns. I don't actually hide a column (is that a
property you can set for a datagrid column?) This has the distinct advantage of
allowing me to keep much more data in the datagrid than I want or ne
Yes, very odd. I get the same number of columns and the same data listed
for dgtext and dgdata including all the hidden columns. Are the columns
that don't turn up for you in dgtext hidden or have some different
characteristic from those that do?
I'm on LC 5.0.2 on a Mac.

Odd then that this command:
on datavstext
put the dgText["true"] of group "dgTableData" into theResult
put cr & "-" & cr after theResult
put the dgData of group "dgTableData" into theDataA
put printKeys(theDataA) after theResult
put theResult
end datavstext
should return t
Not sure what you mean by "displayed", but f you mean columns that are not
hidden, that's not my experience - I see hidden columns and all rows in
dgText.

Yes, after the initial euphoria of going gold with a product, who wants to
return to the tedium of documentation? I have foresworn to never document
anything I do. If the end user cannot figure it out on his own, I've designed a
lousy interface. That's my excuse and I'm sticking with it! heh heh
Yep, I agree. Datagrids are mentioned in the Reference manual as an available
control, they're on the IDE Tool palette but the dictionary is silent about
them. Trevor has very thoroughly documented datagrids at the provided link but
but their properties and messages should be in the dictionary

Datagrids aren't "real" controls like the others, they are scripted
groups written by a third party, and were later added

You have to go to the web page for learning to use data grids. There is a whole
API and yes, dgText is in there. There is also a tutorial on how to use data
grids.
