Hello,

I'd like to outline the current cell in an MSFlexGrid control with a
certain color and line thickness. I thought of putting a shape control
on the form and positioning it over the cell, but the shape control is
always behind the grid (and therefore hidden). Does anyone have any
ideas about how to do something like this?

Also, do you know of any grid controls that allow in-cell editing?

Regards,

Michael Floyd

Its a while since I did this, but, I think that I used a Text Box over the
grid cell (which can be coloured to indicate the current cell). The Text Box
accepts / edits text and when moved dumps its contents back to the previous
grid cell as it goes (picking up the contents of the next grid cell) etc.

Thanks, but I only want to have the outline coloured.

Why not just make a rectangle with lines or use API rectangle, color and
width the size you want and then lay ontop of the cell.
