SplitContaining Method
The SplitContaining method returns the Index value of the split containing the specified coordinate pair.
TDBGrid.SplitContaining(x, y)
Arguments
x and y are singles that define a coordinate pair in twips.
Return Value
An integer corresponding to the index of the split beneath the specified coordinate pair.
This value ranges from 0 to Splits.Count - 1.
This method is useful when working with mouse and drag events when you are trying to determine where the user clicked or dropped another control in terms of a grid column.
If either argument is outside of the grid's data area, this method returns -1.
Note
You must convert the x and y arguments to twips, even if the container's ScaleMode (Visual Basic) setting specifies a different unit of measurement.
