features for displaying and manipulating data. Data grids allow you to do some or all of these
tasks:
• Get details about a specific cell or row.
• Issue commands by right-clicking to display a context menu
• Sort data within a column.
• Rearrange columns.
• Copy cell or row information.
• Customize the display of information.
• Search for information in the grid.
Some HPDM tabs (the tabs in the Database area, for example) do not provide data-grid features.
You can usually sort and export the data in these tabs, but you can't get row detail information,
search for items, or display context menus.
