Try it like this .. oCOl has to be defined in your variable list.

Code: Select all | Expand

// row numbers
ADD oCol to oLbxB AT 1 DATA oLbxB:KeyNo() HEADER 'Ln' size 23 //PICTURE '9999'
oLbxB:aCols[1]:nDataStrAlign := AL_LEFT
oLbxB:aCols[1]:nHeadStrAlign := AL_LEFT

Right now it is not possible, but we do have plans to provide painting of user specified information on the RecordSelector.

Still we can show the same effect this way.

Insert column 1 to show oBrw:KeyNo or ( cAlias )->( recno() ) or whatever you choose.

ADD TO oBrw AT 1 DATA oBrw:KeyNo PICTURE "9999" HEADER "SlNo"

Then remove recordselector and paint the first column with record selector color.

oBrw:lRecordSelector := .f.
oBrw:oCol( "SlNo" ):bClrStd := { || CLR_BLACK, oBrw:nRecSelColor }

This gives a similar look and feel but still not as good as directl painting the number on the recordselector itself.

Rick, Rao,
Thanks for reply,

Same efect ? Yes !

But i must change the source code where i control column values becouse column number is changed
(I have one column more)

( cAlias )->( recno() )

Is it good solution ? What if .dbf file is indexed ?

The database could also be indexed and filtered.

I tried to come with some ideas but multi-user systems would be a problem. Ideally, you would need to read a location from the index itself but I don't know if this is possible. And if you added a filter that was not part of the index itself, then the location wouldn't be accurate.
