Displaying a Table (Grid) as a Display Box in a Window and GridBox()

Created: Jan 5, 2022 11:47 AM  |  Last Modified: Jun 9, 2023 02:08 PM (443 views)

Hi.  I would like to know if there is a way to include a table (aka grid) as a display box inside a modal window.  Looking through the scripting index, the Display Boxes "GridBox()", "GridCellBox()", and "GridMultiCellBox()" grabbed my attention, but there's no documentation on these.

 

I want an actual table in the window because I need the user to be able to cut/paste several cell of data into it.  I can't just create the data table separately because my application requires use of a modal window, and users cannot access another data table while the window is open (nor do I want them to).  I cannot use other display boxes like LineUpBox or TableBox with TextEditBoxes as children, because you cannot copy/paste a block of data to multiple TextEditBoxes all at one time (must copy/paste cell by cell).  

 

Just curious if anyone knows how to use these GridBox objects?

Thanks.

Sigh. The moment after I posted this I saw there's a display box called "DataBrowserBox()" that does exactly what I need.  Nevermind...
