OnSelectCell acting strangely

[benwrcoder]

OnSelectCell triggering every time I move my mouse over a string. I assume its not meant to do that, because it only clicks once. Anyone know why this might be?

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. procedure TViewform.ShowGridSelectCell(Sender: TObject; aCol, aRow: Integer;
2.   var CanSelect: Boolean);
3.  
4. begin
5.   showmessage(IntToStr(aRow));
6.   if aRow>0 then
7.   begin
8.     Viewform.IDlabel.Caption := IntToStr(mainlist[aRow-1].GetID);
9.     Viewform.NameLabel.Caption:= mainlist[aRow-1].GetName;
10.     Viewform.BreedLabel.Caption:= mainlist[aRow-1].GetBreed;
11.     Viewform.SpeciesLabel.Caption:= mainlist[aRow-1].GetSpecies;
12.     Viewform.ColorLabel.Caption:= mainlist[aRow-1].GetColor;
13.     Viewform.HatchLabel.Caption:= mainlist[aRow-1].GetHatch;
14.   end;
15.

I did a quick test and I observed this: when I push and hold left-mouse button and I hover the grid, it triggers OnSelectCell on each move (even if I am over the same cell). I suspected option RangeSelect but changing it had no effect.
It should be reported.

Hi,

I had the same problem when I used one cell (marked with an »X«) to delete a row.
To workaround this Problem I »set the focus« (not really SetFocus) to another row
when the row in question was deleted.
E.g. to ensure that I click on the X-column (Column2) I performed a...
=> if aCol <> 2 then exit;
When I hit Col 2 a little routine deletes the row in question. To avoid that »on-
scroll-seems-to-click-on-same-cell (column) I performed a...
=> SomeGrid.Col := 0; (Col 0 is not affected by clicking or scrolling.

Regards
