After each call to a column property such as dgColumnWidth, the datagrid is

This I did not know. Thank you.
Instead of having them in the loop, prepare the column size, columns label,
etc and uses the table properties existing for setting all the values at
once. In this case the refresh of the datagrid is internally made only one
time.
This I did know. As I said in my initial message:
I realize that I could use: 'set the dgProp["column widths"] of grp <DG>
to <returnDelimitedListOfWidths>' as a single set action vs a loop where
I am using 'set the dgColumnWidth[tColumnName] of grp <DG> to
<singleWidth>'.
However, there are only Datagid properties so set attributes for ALL
columns for alignments, visibility, widths, and labels. Therefore, I
have to use a loop anyway to set the tooltip, sorttype, sortdirection,
end editability
SO, while I can change the code to set the column ALIGNMENTS and WIDTHS
all at once, I am still stuck setting the TOOLTIP, SORTTYPE,
SORTDIRECTION, and EDITABILITY column by column in a repeat loop. So
what do I do about setting the TOOLTIPs? There is NO 'set the
dgProp["column tooltips"] of grp <DG> to <returnDelimitedListOfTips>'
Obviously, I can just TRY using LOCK MESSAGES (as Paul Hibbert
suggested), but I am concerned that may cause more problems that it
solves. Does anyone KNOW for sure?
