Adding a variable grid control

The variable grid control has the following attributes:
Attribute name
name
style
type
columns
columnWidth
The following example adds a simple variable grid control to a dialog box:
<select name="ParamList" style="width:515px;" ¬
type="mmparameterlist columns"="Name,SQL Data ¬
Type,Direction,Default Value,Run-time Value" size=6></select>
The following example creates a variable grid control that is 500 pixels wide, with five columns of
various widths:
<select name="ParamList" style="width:500px;" ¬
type=mmparameterlist columns="Name,SQL Data Type,Direction, ¬
Default Value,Run-time Value" columnWidth="100,25,11," size=6>¬
</select>
This example creates two blank columns that are 182 pixels wide. (The specified columns total
136. The total width of the variable grid control is 500. The remaining space after the first three
columns are placed is 364. Two columns remain; 364 divided by 2 is 182.)
This variable grid control also has a JavaScript wrapper object that should be used to access and
manipulate the variable grid control's data. You can find the implementation in the
GridControlClass.js file in the Configuration/Shared/MM/Scripts/Class folder.
