Working with Style Properties

Just as a document template in Microsoft Word specifies the overall appearance of individual paragraphs in a document, the named members of the Styles collection provide an overall display template for a TDBList or TDBCombo control. However, to customize the appearance of individual Split or Column objects, you need to modify the appropriate Style object property:

CaptionStyle	Controls the caption style for an object
EvenRowStyle	Controls the row style for even-numbered rows
FooterStyle	Controls the footing style for an object
HeadingStyle	Controls the heading style for an object
HighlightRowStyle	Controls the style of the current row
InactiveStyle	Controls the inactive heading style for an object
OddRowStyle	Controls the row style for odd-numbered rows
SelectedStyle	Controls the selected row and column style for an object
Style	Controls the normal style for an object

Note: Not every property that ends with "Style" returns a Style object. For example, DividerStyle is an enumerated property, and AlternatingRowStyle is a boolean.

The following list shows which style properties are supported by the TDBList and TDBCombo controls, and which are supported by the Split and Column objects.
