datagrid: index vs line

[Bob Sneidar]

That is correct. If the datagrid does not have a sort applied, then upon populating it, the line and index numbers will be equal. Also, if you populate the datagrid with data in the same sort order as the datagrid, then line should equal index. It’s because of this and my need to assume that the visible line 1 is also the logical line 1 that I have gotten into the habit of getting the dgprop [“sort by column”] of the data grid, so I can query the data in the same order as the table is being sorted.
