Member of TFieldpublishedIn unit DB

Width of the field in characters.

Declaration

pascal
property DisplayWidth: LongInt read GetDisplayWidth write SetDisplayWidth stored IsDisplayWidthStored;

Description

DisplayWidth is the width (in characters) that should be used by controls that display the contents of the field (such as in grids or lookup lists). It is initialized to a default value for most fields (e.g. it equals Size for string fields) but can be modified to obtain a more appropriate value for the field's expected content.
