class CGXRecordInfoSplitterWnd: public CGXSplitterWnd

The CGXRecordInfoSplitterWnd embeds a non-resizable CGXRecordInfoBeam on the left side of the horizontal scrollbar of a CGXSplitterWnd. The user can use this CGXRecordInfoBeam to navigate through a grid just like you know from applications like MS Access or MS Query.

Here is how to use this class:

• With an MDI frame follow the same steps as for creating a CSplitterWnd (see MS Documentation). Next thing is to replace the following methods as in the following example:
  

CRecordStatusMDIChildWnd::CRecordStatusMDIChildWnd()
{
   m_pWndRecordInfo = NULL;
}

CRecordStatusMDIChildWnd::~CRecordStatusMDIChildWnd()
{
   delete m_pWndRecordInfo;
}

BOOL CRecordStatusMDIChildWnd::OnCreateClient(LPCREATESTRUCT /*lpcs*/, CCreateContext* pContext)
{
#if _MFC_VER >= 0x0400

   // use the new record info wnd with support for dynamic splitter views
   CGXRecordInfoSplitterWnd* pWndRecordInfo = new CGXRecordInfoSplitterWnd;

   if (!pWndRecordInfo->Create( this,
      2, 2,                 // TODO: adjust the number of rows, columns
      CSize( 10, 10 ),      // TODO: adjust the minimum pane size
      pContext ))
      return FALSE;

#else

   // record info wnd without support for dynamic splitter views
   CGXRecordInfoWnd* pWndRecordInfo = new CGXRecordInfoWnd;

   if (!pWndRecordInfo->Create(this, pContext))
      retun FALSE;

#endif
   m_pWndRecordInfo = pWndRecordInfo;

   return TRUE;
}

• With an SDI frame you should also follow the same steps as for creating a CSplitterWnd. A sample CMainFrame::OnCreateClient method could look like this:

BOOL CMainFrame::OnCreateClient(LPCREATESTRUCT lpcs, CCreateContext* pContext)
{
#if _MFC_VER >= 0x0400

   // use the new record info wnd with support for dynamic splitter views
   m_pWndSplitter = new CGXRecordInfoSplitterWnd;

   if (!m_pWndSplitter->Create( this,
      2, 2,                 // TODO: adjust the number of rows, columns
      CSize( 10, 10 ),      // TODO: adjust the minimum pane size
      pContext ))
      return FALSE;

   return TRUE;

#else

   // record info wnd without support for dynamic splitter views
   m_pWndRecordInfo = new CGXRecordInfoWnd;

   return m_pWndRecordInfo->Create(this, pContext, WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|WS_HSCROLL);

#endif
}

Check out gxquery, daoquery or dbfbrows for a sample on using this class in an MDI frame. Check out dbgrid for a sample on using this class in an SDI frame.
