Selecting Data in a Grid    

There are five data selection options for grids: Enable Column Selection, Enable Row Selection, and Enable Cell Selection, Select All, and Clear All Selection. During run-time, these five selection options are available from the context (right-click) menu. The next section describes each selection option in more detail.

Enable Column Selection – allows you to click anywhere in a column to select the entire column. To select multiple consecutive columns, click in the first column and drag the mouse over the additional columns. To select multiple non-consecutive columns, click in the first column, hold down the Ctrl key, and click in the additional columns.

Enable Row Selection – allows you to click anywhere in a row to select the entire row. To select multiple consecutive rows, click in the first row and drag the mouse over the additional rows. To select multiple non-consecutive rows, click in the first row, hold down the Ctrl key, and click in the additional rows.

Enable Cell Selection – allows you to click a single cell to select it. Also, you can click and drag the mouse over multiple consecutive rows or columns to select them. To select multiple, non-consecutive cells, click on the first cell, hold down the Ctrl key, and click on each additional cell.

Select All – allows you to select all cells in the table.

Clear All Selection – allows you to clear any selections you have made.
