Understanding Grid Properties

When you accept the default settings of grids, the grid appears with :

  • A data navigation bar at the top of the table that enables the user to page through additional rows of data.

  • Delete and Add buttons at the end of each row that enable the user to insert and delete rows in the grid.

    The inserted row appears under the current row. These buttons appear automatically as determined by the grid properties (display-only, no row insert, and no row delete).

  • An occurs count of 1.

    You can set the grid to be any size at design time and then set the occurs count to control the maximum number of rows to display at runtime.

There are three areas on a grid to which you can apply labels or image buttons to help the user navigate through the data in the grid. Set properties for these areas:

  • Header

  • Body

  • Footer
