   TableFrame column moving - in OPAL   
   13 Jul 07 10:58:38

   Greetings all.   
      
   On a form with a MRO tableframe, I'm trying to let the users reorder the   
   columns, and also resize them.  I've figured out how to actually reorder   
   them using mouse events and ui1.CurrentColumn and ui2.ColumnPosition.  But   
   I can't figure out how to clearly show them where they're moving the column   
   to.  I'm highlighting each field on mouseEnter/mouseExit, but as you scroll   
   off the page left/right, this doesn't follow.   
      
   So, basically, 3 questions looking for good techniques to:   
      
   1. Scroll a tableframe so it follows a mouse event off the left/right of   
   the visible area?   
      
   2. Highlight that a column move is happening, and where it will be positioned   
   as it is moving?   
      
   3. Resize an existing column?   
      
   Also, is there any way to do this without having to set TabStop=true?  Most   
   of the columns are for reference only - just 3 of 30+ can be changed.   
      
   BTW, Pdox 9 sp3, and RunTime.   
      
   TIA,
