Thanks, that makes sense. What am trying to do is this... *model* db.define_table('x', Field('p', type='string'), Field('q', type='string'), Field('r', type='text') )
This will be displayed in a SQLFORM.grid, with the following caveats: 1. I do not want to see columns for p, q, and r, but rather format the output in such way that p q r are concatenated.Therefore the grid will look like this: |--p+q+r value--|--row buttons--| 2. When I edit the row, the edit form should display: p (in readonly mode) q (in read/write mode) r (is not displayed) - For caveat 1, I achieved that with the grid's links={} option to display what I need, in the format I needed it. Something like this links = [{'header':'Custom stuff', 'body':lambda row: .... }]. This also means that I set all the fields to readable=False. - For caveat 2, I was trying the stuff mentioned in my original post On Thursday, March 20, 2014 12:51:12 AM UTC+5:30, Anthony wrote: > > The label is used to label an entire column, so it wouldn't make sense to > calculate a different label for every record.
