Bonjour,

I must confess that, up to now, I did not learn a lot about  
customizing the Data Grid Templates substack ;-). I just dragged a  
data grid and set its properties in the inspector, or by scripts.
So thanks you very much for your suggestion;
It induces me to read (and try) more deeply what concerns this topic  
in the Trevor' manual. I am going to do that right now!

Best regards from Grenoble
André
