Is it possible to have "Move-Up / Move-Down" buttons that can move a selected row in a dataGrid and move it to a different row in the database?

Where can I get more info or an example of this and what would this type of operation be called?

Thanks

Yes, but you'll have to implement those buttons yourself, along with the algorithm to change your dataProvider as those buttons are clicked.

I created a list with these sort of buttons. We call it a DataSorter.

  • Can you give any more specific details on how to do this? I'm try to understand the process. – dmschenk Jan 21 '11 at 12:04
  • Create a column (or columns) with an itemRenderer that contains a button. Have the buttons dispatch an event, make sure it bubbles. In your event handler, modify the dataProvider accordingly. If you want something more in depth than that, I can provide consulting services.. – JeffryHouser Jan 22 '11 at 19:59
