Title: paramquery grid with select dropdown that has multiple columns
Post by: novosys on March 23, 2017, 02:22:03 pm

im trying to get a paramquery grid to use a multi column dropdown list.  is this possible?  otherwise, could i integrate another dropdown list control into the paramquery grid?

what im trying to achieve is a dropdown with 2 columns, 1 of which is the value and the other is description.  selecting the item would return the value.

value | description
value | description

I don't know about any multi column select list but have you considered to concatenate the value with description string instead of displaying description alone.

the problem with that is the drop down items will be "staggered" and look untidy.  for example it would be like this:
value | description
some other value | description

where i would like it to be:
value                    | description
some other value | description
