SYMPTOMS
The Grid Alignment property programmatically accepts any numeric value without causing a error. According to the Help file, values 0 through 9 are the only valid values.

This behavior also exists in Visual FoxPro versions 3.x and 5.x.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.



MORE INFORMATION
According to Visual FoxPro Online help, values 0 through 9 are valid Grid Header Alignment values, but values outside this range do not cause errors. In general, values below 0 align the header to the middle left and values above 9 align the header to the bottom center.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior
  Run the following code and change the Grid Header Alignment property by using the Spinner control: frmAlignment=CREATEOBJECT('form') frmAlignment.ADDOBJECT('grdHeader','grid') frmAlignment.ADDOBJECT('spnSpinner','Gridspinner') frmAlignment.grdHeader.COLUMNCOUNT = 3 frmAlignment.grdHeader.VISIBLE = 1 frmAlignment.grdHeader.column1.header1.CAPTION = "I" frmAlignment.grdHeader.column1.header1.ALIGNMENT = 0 &&Aligned Left frmAlignment.SHOW(1)

DEFINE CLASS gridspinner AS SPINNER TOP = 225 VISIBLE = .T.         PROCEDURE INTERACTIVECHANGE frmAlignment.grdHeader.column1.header1.ALIGNMENT=THIS.VALUE ENDPROC ENDDEFINE
