Multiple Line Headers on Grids

Multiple Line Headers on Grids

Question:
Can I have multiple line headers on grids?

Answer:
No, you cannot have multiple line headers on grids in VFP, but you can simulate them by overlapping a shape object over the top of the column and drop a label on that shape for the extra text to display.

Using this technique with grids, where not all of the data can be seen at the same time (in other words, you can scroll the grid horizontally to see non-visible fields), can be tricky because you need to keep the headers in sync with the columns when they move.
