Description

The LISTBOX SET COLUMN WIDTH command allows you to modify through programming the width of one or all column(s) of the object (list box, column or header) set using the object and * parameters.

If you pass the optional * parameter, you indicate that the object parameter is an object name (a string). If you do not pass this parameter, you indicate that the object parameter is a variable. In this case, you pass a variable reference instead of a string. For more information about object names, refer to the Object Properties section.

Pass the new width (in pixels) of the object in the width parameter.

If object sets the list box object, all columns of the list box are resized.

If object sets a column or a column header, only the column set is resized.

The optional minWidth and maxWidth parameters can be used to set limits for the manual resizing of the column You can pass, respectively, the minimum and maximum width expressed in pixels in the minWidth and maxWidth parameters. If you want users to be unable to resize the column, you can pass the same value in width, minWidth and maxWidth.
