Examples

This section describes how to open a dialog with grid control in Origin C. You can show/hide grid column by right click at the grid.

The examples in this section will use an existing grid dialog resource DLL that gets installed with Origin C's Developer Kit. The DLL can be found in this zip file, under \Dialog Builder\GridDLG sub-folder.
