flData (ULONG)

Attributes of the field's data.

Possible values are shown in the following list:

• Specify one of the following for each column to choose the type of data that is displayed in each column:

  CFA_BITMAPORICON

  The column contains bit-map or icon data.
  CFA_DATE
  The data in the column is displayed in date format. National Language Support (NLS) is enabled for date format. Use the data structure described in CDATE
  CFA_STRING
  Character or text data is displayed in this column.
  CFA_TIME
  The data in the column is displayed in time format. National Language Support (NLS) is enabled for time format. Use the data structure described in CTIME.
  CFA_ULONG
  Unsigned number data is displayed in this column. National Language Support (NLS) is enabled for number format.
  
  Specify any or all of the following column attributes:

  CFA_FIREADONLY

  Prevents text in a FIELDINFO data structure (text in a column) from being edited directly. This attribute applies only to columns for which the CFA_STRING attribute has been specified.
  CFA_HORZSEPARATOR
  A horizontal separator is provided beneath column headings.
  CFA_INVISIBLE
  Invisible container column. The default is visible.
  CFA_OWNER
  Ownerdraw is enabled for this container column.
  CFA_SEPARATOR
  A vertical separator is drawn after this column.
  
  Specify one of the following for each column to vertically position data in that column:

  CFA_BOTTOM

  Bottom-justifies field data.
  CFA_TOP
  Top-justifies field data.
  CFA_VCENTER
  Vertically centers field data. This is the default.
  
  Specify one of the following for each column to horizontally position data in that column. These attributes can be combined with the attributes used for vertical positioning of column data by using an OR operator (|).

  CFA_CENTER

  Horizontally centers field data.
  CFA_LEFT
  Left-justifies field data. This is the default.
  CFA_RIGHT
  Right-justifies field data.
  
  Specify the following if new comparison descriptions are used:

  CFA_NEWCOMP

  Tells the system to use strings specified in pNewComp.
  
  Specify the following if a pointer to an object needs to be passed as the first parameter of a user-defined comparison function:

  CFA_OBJECT

  Tells the system that the applications wants to use its own comparison function in which the first parameter is a pointer to an object. For example:

  LONG MyComp(WPObject *obj, PSZ str2)
  

  This flag must be ORed (|) together with one of the type flags (CFA_BITMAPORICON, CFA_DATE, CFA_STRING, CFA_TIME, or CFA_ULONG) to tell the object the type that is being compared.
