Parameters

Name Type Description

ARecordPerBand Integer

AFileExt string

Optional. Specifies the file name extension for the resulting HTML file.

This parameter value always replaces the file name extension passed as a part of the AFileName parameter value.

AHandler TObject

Optional. Specifies a handler object that should implement the IcxExportBeforeSave and/or IcxExportProgress interfaces to allow you to perform specific actions before the beginning of an export operation and track its progress.

Remarks

Call the cxExportVGToHTML procedure to export vertical grid content to a file in HTML format. Unlike plain text formats, HTML allows you to export the original data layout and take look & feel settings into account.

Code Example

The following code example exports vertical grid content in HTML format:

uses cxExportVGLink;
// ...
  cxExportVGToHTML('Orders.html', vgOrders);

Grid Mode Limitations

The cxExportVGToHTML procedure exports only the currently cached records when the source vertical grid control is in Grid Mode.
