If you use an MSFlexGrid control to display data returned in an ADO recordset, you can use this code to dynamically populate the grid?including the header row?with the information in the recordset. You need an open ADO recordset named rst and a form containing an MSFlexGrid control named msfGrid:
Dim cln As FieldWith msfGrid .Rows = 2 .Cols = rst.Fields.Count 'get the number of grid cols .FixedRows = 1 .FixedCols = 0 .Row = 0 .Col = 0 For Each cln In rst.Fields .Text = cln.Name 'populate header row with names of fields If .Col < .Cols - 1 Then .Col = .Col + 1 Next Do While Not rst.EOF 'loop thru recordset to populate grid .Row = rst.AbsolutePosition 'move to the next row .Col = 0 'reset ourselves back to column(0) For Each cln In rst.Fields If Not IsNull(cln.Value) Then .Text = Trim(CStr(cln.Value)) Else .Text = "" End If If .Col < .Cols - 1 Then .Col = .Col + 1 Next rst.MoveNext .Rows = .Rows + 1 'add a new row to the grid Loop .Rows = .Rows - 1 'remove the last row because it's blank .Row = 0End With
