Description

GetCellHintText is an overridden method in TCustomDBGrid. It re-implements the method from the ancestor class to ignore fixed title cells when getting the hint text. The OnGetCellHint event handler is signalled (when assigned) to get the cell hint text used in the return value.

GetCellHintText does not call the inherited method.
