Description
The SpinButton class implements the behaviours specific to spin buttons. This control is used to represent a value between two given boundaries, or to scroll parts of other controls. This class is not instantiable, derivable or cloneable. The only instances available to the programmer are those automatically generated by HB++ when you place a control on a form.

It is possible to attach a SpinButton to a multiline Field control or a Grid control. In this case, the interactions between the SpinButton and the control are automatically managed by the system and there is no additional code to write. On the other hand, if the SpinButton is not attached to a control, you must programatically define its mimimum and maximum values, and handle raised events.
This class offers no methods to the programmer. All the necessary functionality for managing a SpinButton is inherited by the AdjustableControl class. Refer to the documentation of this object for more information.
Note : The Track event is not raised by the SpinButton control.
