  • 1.  Data Grid Workflow Web Form Component

    Posted Nov 06, 2009 04:02 PM
    I am new to Workflow 7 and I would like to know how to use the DataGrid compponent in the Web Form editor.  I am trying to set up a grid that will have 4 columns where data can be entered.  I am unclear on how to set this up.  I have taken a look at the help for the component and I am not sure how to select the data type.  All the values in the rows for each column will be text values.

    Check out this post.
    It's more than you probably need, but it covers the datagrid.

    Kelsmore, pick the data type of the data you want to show. If the data isn't in a complex data type, you can't show it in a grid. But it's really easy to get it into a CDT if you need to.
    For example, if you were dealing with the "User" CDT, once you pick that data type the columns in your grid are labeled by the properties of the data type. The rows, in this case, would be user instances.
    This explains why "Text" isn't an available data type in the component; text is simple so it would have only one row and what's the point of using the grid then?

    Does this help?
