How to tell when a datagrid column has been resized

[Pete]

There's a mouseUp handler in the default header behavior script for a
datagrid that looks like this:

*on* mouseUp pMouseBtnNum

   *if* pMouseBtnNum is 1 and not the dgHeaderColumnIsBeingResized of
thedgHeader
of me *then*

      *## Change the sort of the column*

      *## _HeaderToggleSortOfColumn is a helper that resizes in the parent
group script.*

      *## It toggles the sort of the column based on current state of
column.*

      _HeaderToggleSortOfColumn the dgColumn of me

   *end* *if*

   *pass* mouseUp

*end* mouseUp


You might be able to figure something out from that.  For example , set the
default header behavior script to your own copy of it and then if
the dgHeaderColumnIsBeingResized property is true, do whatever it is you
need to do.
