clickability in a DataGrid

[Peter Haworth]

Hi Sieg,
If you use my handler, the dghilitedline will give you the correct line
number.

By way of explanation, the "Col 1 0006" you see is the name of the field in
the datagrid that holds the value.  The 4-digit number at the end refers to
the visible line number within the datagrid, not the absolute line number
being display.  So if you have 12 visible lines in your datagrid, the Col
1 fields will be numbered form "Col 1 0001" to "Col 1 0012"

That should answer your other question about a max of 9999 lines in the
datagrid.  You can have many more lines loaded into the datagrid but no
more 9999 visible lines.
