Sequence number column

You can add a sequence number column into a Data Grid which allocates a row number to each individual record.

Adding a sequence number column

To add the column, from the Data Grid toolbar:

  • Select Add User Code

In the window that opens:

  • Enter the column Heading Description - e.g. Row Number

  • Click to select the Row Number (starting from)

  • Enter the number from which you wish to start the sequence, click Add and then build the display

A new column is inserted and each row allocated its own sequence number:

Note

Behind the scenes it is an expression being used to add row number information into the Data Grid display. Should you wish to amend the sequence numbers:

  • Right-click on the column header and select Edit Expression...

This will take you to the Expression window where you simply amend the starting number inside the brackets

  • Click OK and rebuild the display
