Typical Uses of Scripting
In This Topic
Here's a list of the types of things you can do with client-side scripting without a round trip to the server:
- access the value of a cell
- set the value of a cell
- raise an event when a specific value is entered into a cell
- test if the user has changed the values in the Spread cells (no matter what cell)
- determine if the active cell is in edit mode
- warn the user if they fail to fill in a particular cell and allow them to go back and fill it in or leave it blank and continue
- find the column of the active cell and change the background color of that column’s header
