Click on a row, and copy the second colum value of this row to the clipboard

Click on a row, and copy the second colum value of this row to the clipboard

For example
_|________|_______
1| Test | Test2
2| peter | max
.....

I click in "max" an becomes and I get "peter". If I click "on peter", I becomes "peter" too...
with "obj.setAction("click", function(src){editarticle.catnr.value = src.getDataProperty("text")});" I get the value where the mouse clicked. I will always the value of columm 2.

thx!

Hi Alex and Steve,
I have tried the example you refer to and it works. I would like however to move the code that shows the value to an external js file. The first step I took is to put in a seperate function

var gridUsers_columns = [

  "First Name","Last Name","Department","Country"

]

var gridUsers_data = [

  ["myfirstname","mylastname","mydepartment","mycountry"]

];

try {

  var gridUsers = new Active.Controls.Grid;

  gridUsers.setRowCount(1);

  gridUsers.setColumnCount(4);

  gridUsers.setColumnText(function(i){return gridUsers_columns[i];});

  gridUsers.setDataText(function(i,j){return gridUsers_data[i][j];});

  function setForm(src) {

    var rowIndex = src.getRowProperty("text");

    var tekst = this.getDataProperty("text", rowIndex, 1);

    alert(tekst);

  }

  gridUsers.setAction("click", setForm);

  document.write(gridUsers);

}

catch(error) {

  //show error in another frame

  parent.bottombar.write("Grid error: "; error.description);

}

This also works fine. When I move this setForm function to a js file however things stop working. I get this error
line 71: 'gridUsers_data[...]' is null or not an object
I have tried to change the way I attach the function to the grid object by replacing
gridUsers.setAction("click", setForm);
in the above code by

var row = new Active.Templates.Row;

  row.setEvent('onclick', function(){this.action("setFormAction")});

  gridUsers.setTemplate("row", row);

  gridUsers.setAction("setFormAction", setForm);

because I saw some people using this technique (although I don't understand what the difference is between both). I keep getting the same error however.
The grid tool works way to good to be the cause so I must be doing something wrong. Can you tell me what ??
Thanks in advance.
