    By far the most useful grid I've used. Does what I need and more. The best thing is that it is free. With a wizard front end so that novices could use would easily be able to sell.

    Excellent work, [b]Abhijeet[/b]! But [b]dpkona[/b] says [quote]"...with a wizard front end..."[/quote], but I don't see any "wizard." Did I miss something?
    Posted by :  ask5 at 23:51 on Monday, April 25, 2005
    Hi Ws1o,
    First of all thanks for appriciating!
    No there is no wizard over here. i think u misunderstood the statement.
    i guess he must have used "wizard" as an adjective.

    Hi Abhijeet

    Good job buddy. There is one problem in the grid, after adding a new group or sub group or book and save. Then if you hit the refresh button, the last added item is getting added again. So if you keep refreshing the page 10 times, you will see 10 entries added.

    You need to look into this problem. Otherwise you have done a very nice job.

    Thanks

    can you help me with the reloading the grid when it saves a record?
    Posted by :  spotw at 11:50 on Monday, November 27, 2006
    I can get the grid to load from the database but it will not save or delete. I changed the IUSR permissions to read write and execute for the www folder. What am I missing?
    Posted by :  ask5 at 13:03 on Monday, November 27, 2006
    You don't have to worry about the IUSR permissions.
    check out the permissions on the access database file.
    also, just make sure that the access database file magicgrid.mdb is not open while you are running the program.
