The value in <var>Modified</var> is set to <b>False</b> when Loaded using <var>Modified</var> is a <var>Boolean</var> property which indicates whether
the LCL streaming mechanism. The value in Modified is changed to <b>True</b> the cell content in the grid control has been changed. Modified is set to
when the <var>Cells</var> property is updated in the <var>SetCells</var> <b>True</b> when the <var>Cells</var> property is updated and the
method. <var>SetCells</var> method is called to apply the new value. This occurs when
a cell is edited using a built-in cell editor, or when a value is directly
assigned to the Cells property.
</p>
<p>
<var>Modified</var> is set to <b>False</b> when the control is Loaded using
the LCL streaming mechanism.
</p>
<p>
Methods which use Cells to indirectly assign value(s) also set Modified to
<b>True</b>. These include: AssignTo, SelectionSetText, SelectionSetHTML,
SetCheckBoxState, SetEditText, LoadContent, Clean, InsertRowWithValues,
LoadContent, LoadFromFile, LoadFromStream, LoadFromCSVFile and
LoadFromCSVStream.
</p>
<p>
In contrast, methods which perform row or column operations without changing
Cells do <b>not</b> cause the Modified property to be set. These are generally
methods from an ancestor class where Modified does not exist, and include:
ClearCols, ClearRows, DeleteColRow, DeleteCol, DeleteRow, ExchangeColRow,
InsertColRow, MoveColRow, SortColRow, DoOPDeleteColRow, DoOPExchangeColRow,
DoOPInsertColRow, and DoOPMoveColRow.
</p>
<p>
The event handlers signalled from these methods can be used to update the
value in Modified, including: OnColRowDeleted, OnColRowExchanged,
OnColRowInserted, OnColRowMoved, and OnCompareCells. Or, as an alternative,
update Modified from an event handler like OnClick assigned to the control
which triggers one of these operations.
</p>
<p>
Methods which save the grid content do <b>not</b> reset the value in Modified
when the operation is completed. These include: SaveContent, SaveToFile,
SaveToCSVFile, SaveToStream, and SaveToCSVStream. These actions are triggered
by a control in the application, and its OnClick or OnExecute handler can be
used to set the value in Modified.
