1. RE: EuGrid 1.2 Release - Jonas
Jonas,
Sorry 'bout that. Never release software at midnight...
I've started working on a button cell to allow dialogs to be popped up.
Hopefully you will get your file, date etc selectors soon.
Let me know if you find any bugs.

Phil,
Well, now that you mention it....
Here's a couple of things:
1. When using the tab key to tab through columns/rows in an EuGrid it
would be nice if the current cell's border would be highlighted/colored
to indicate where the current cell is. The problem here is when tabing
through a grid with some read-only cells, check boxes, buttons, etc. you
only know where the current cell is when you tab to a text cell that is
editable. Make sense?
2. How about a EGW_RIGHTBUTTONDOWN/EGW_RIGHTBUTTONUP message to add a
custom popup menu?
Keep up the GREAT work! My company will be submitting a bid to re-write
an Access application using Euphoria as the front end and I can
guarantee that EuGrid will be in there!

By default you *should* be getting a border around the current cell.
There are a couple of grid properties which set this behaviour:
EGW_CELL_BORDER -- if True then draw border round current cell (this is
the default)
EGW_CELL_BORDER_COLOR -- defaults to windows '3d dark shadow' system
colour, which is black in the standard windows colour scheme
If you are not getting a border then possible reasons could be:
(i) the cell border property is not set to True,
(ii) you are using a different windows colour scheme which renders the
border color non-visible
(iii) you have set the grid line colour (EGW_LINE_COLOR) to the same as
the border colour
(iv) there is a bug in the library.
The border appears fine on my pc - could you try changing the border
color to something bright (like yellow) to see if it appears on yours?

I set EGW_CELL_BORDER to true...no change.
I added setting EGW_CELL_BORDER_COLOR...no change.

I set it to True, still no change

Nope, using "Windows Standard"

Nope, didn't set EGW_LINE_COLOR

Can't answer that one!

I don't know if this is related. I'm having trouble on my Win2K machine
with any Win32Lib program that uses drawRectangle. I noticed that
you're using Rectangle function as well. Maybe it's related. However,
I seem to be the only one running into the problem so it might not be
worth your time to investigate. I'll try on Win98 / XP and see if it
works.
Thanks!
Jonas
