Hi everyone,

Is it possible to subclass a column and then get a grid to use the subclass instead of the base class for the columns instantiated?

It seems the default for .SelectOnEntry() is .T. and this client wants all their data entry grids to have this set to .F.; so either I go through and do so manually on each form or I guess better yet I could put code in the .INIT() of the form to loop through all columns and set this to .f. at runtime. But I would rather subclass the column and then somehow use this in my data entry subclass as the default column class.

It appears though that you cannot visually subclass a column although you can programmatically subclass it - with the latter though, I cannot see how to get the grid to use this subclass (I cannot even hack the .scx and do a "replace all" because the column itself does not seem to be a record in the .scx - it is just a property.

Am I missing anything or what would be the best practice?
