Hidden column in grid?

[WarrenW]

Hi,

Can the grid have a hidden column with data? So if I click on a row or a button I add to each row, can i retrieve the value of the cell for the hidden column and use it? For example, if I list people's names and when they are clicked I want to pass their account number to do something else, I don't want to show the account number. So I thought maybe a hidden column would work. Can it?

Thanks,

Warren

Hi Stephen,

sure this is possible!
That's why there is a checkbox "Column is hidden" in the "Columns" section in the "Inspector" for the datagrid!

Retrieve it like any other "visible" column".

Thanks! I wasn't sure with it set to invisible that I could retrieve the data still. I guess I'm still thinking of gridviews in asp coding.

Hi Warren,

sorry, of course the checkbox reads "column is VISIBLE".
But: invisible <> non existent
