                                  • Hello,


                                    we develop a management software in which I want to use the ServerModeView to present the saved records.
                                    The editing of the record should not be within the grid but in separate edit fields.


                                    So my first question is: How do I make the ServerModeView not editable (readonly)?

                                    I havn't found any property like AllowEdit or else.


                                    The next question is about the record selection.

                                    Up to now I used the Dataset to identify the actual record and FieldByName to get the specific field value.

                                    Is there anything related in the ServerModeView class?


                                    I use "DataController.GetItemByFieldName(FieldName).EditValue" so far. Is there anything more elegant?



                                    Regards

                                    Dirk Köhler

                                  I had to look for both of those as well.
                                  The Serverview is readonly but if like me you want the columns not to be editable set options.editing on false for each column.
                                  I found no editing property on view level.

                                  About getting the id i used something like:
                                  ID := <View>.DataController.Values[<View>.DataController.FocusedRowIndex,<columnwithidfield>.Index];

                                  Example:
                                      ID := cxGrid1ServerModeTableView1.DataController.Values[cxGrid1ServerModeTableView1.DataController.FocusedRowIndex,
                                          cxGrid1ServerModeTableView1SA_ID.Index];

                                  Thank you very much.

                                  Is there any disadvantage in using my method to get the FieldValue compared to yours?

                                  Both these approaches are correct, and I see no problems with using them.
