SUMMARY
=======

The Visual Basic 6.0 Online documentation states that dbgNumberOfColumns is a
valid SizeMode mode for the Microsoft DataGrid ActiveX version 6.0 control.
However, Visual Basic auto-completion does not show this as a valid property.
When you use the value of "2" (as described in the documentation), an error
occurs (that is, you get an improper value).

"2" is not a valid value and the functionality as described in the documentation
is not supported by the control.
