PRB: Error Setting Partition of Grid Too Wide at Design Time

   Thisform.Grid1.Partition = Thisform.Grid1.Width / 2
				

MORE INFORMATION

The Partition property specifies whether or not a Grid control is split into two panels and specifies where the split is relative to the left edge of the Grid.

Once the above error is received, the form cannot be opened even in the Form Designer without receiving the error again. To work around this error, the form must opened as a table by issuing USE <formname>.scx in the Command window. Then go to the record listed in the error message and open the Properties memo field and change the "Partition = " line to 0 or at least a smaller value.

NOTE: Setting the form[ASCII 146]s ScaleMode to foxels from pixels has no effect on this problem

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

1. Create a new form and add a Grid.
2. Set the width of the Grid to 400.
3. Click on the Grid and set the partition width to a 350.
4. Run the form.

Repeat the above steps, but set the Partition property to around 305 and note that the property resets to 0.

In testing, the error seems to occur around when the partition size is set in the vicinity of 300 to 330. This error does not seem to depend upon screen resolution and the font used in the Grid.
