Report Control and horizontal scrolling

 

I have a report control with some 30 fixed columns. When i press the up button of my keyboard, the report control scrolls one row up. When pressing down it goes down, as i expect. But when pressing right, the report control is positioned one row down. When i press left, it is repositioned one row up.

 

Isn't it possible to change the report control in a way that the arrow left key is scrolling horizontal to the left and vice versa ?

 

Kind regards and already many thanx.

Hi,

 

Suppose you have 50 columns. You set AutoSizeColumns = false in order to have a decent view of the report. Now, if you want to navigate the columns in the report you have to set FocusSubItems = true. The selection of the row will look like the first picture (the selected subitem is white and not blue). SelectionEnabled = false will show only the FocusRect (ShowFocusRect = true) (see second picture) Now you will see which row is selected and you can navigate the columns with left and right key

 

 

 

 

Tell it to my boss

 

Pictures will always make things easier to explain. You have to make a few screenshots and that's it. Yes, it takes about 2 minutes more and ??? If you didn't understand it, I would have been busy (maybe 3 minutes) with the reply of your second question

 

Hi,

 

If you are desperate:

 

Private Sub wndReportControl_PreviewKeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, ByVal Shift As Integer, Cancel As Boolean)
    Select Case KeyCode
        Case 37, 39
            If wndReportControl.FocusedRow.GroupRow Then Cancel = True
    End Select
End Sub
