greying out columns in a dataGrid

[zryip theSlug]

Hi Hershel,

A possible solution consists to add this handler in the datagrid group
script:

*command* DG_ColorColumn pColName, pColor, pInk
*  set* the opaque of grp pColName of me to (pColor is not empty)
  set the backcolor of grp pColName of me to pColor
  set the ink of grp pColName of me to pInk
*end* DG_ColorColumn

Then, call this handler that way:

*on* mouseUp
  dispatch "DG_ColorColumn" to grp "datagrid 1" with "col 2", "211,211,211",
"srcCopy"
*end* mouseUp


Best Regards,
