Calculate number of rows in a DataGrid

[Bob Sneidar]

dgNumberOfLines
- Returns the number of lines displayed in the data grid.

This is obviously a misnomer. If I have a piece of lined paper with nothing on it, and someone asks me how many lines are on it, I start counting blank lines. I don’t answer “Zero.”

Barring that, you will have to do some math based upon the formattedHeight of each row and the height of the data grid itself, minus the column headers and scrollbar if there is one.

I don’t mean the dgNumberOfLines as this is just the number of rows containing data.

I actually need the number of visible rows. The DataGrid can be resized by script.

It is straightforward where the height of the header and the height of a row is fixed but I was hoping the information may be a property of the DataGrid but I can’t seem to fined one.


Thanks
