What is the "Columns" Form Control Used For?
Hi,

I was creating a new property for a web control. I chose form control type "input". In the drop down list for "Form Control" it lists a control called "columns". What is this used for? It looks like a regular text field. Also, is there any documentation for the rest of the "Form Controls" listed there. It's not obvious what some of them are for.

Thanks,
Scott

The columns form control is used in data web parts where you are specifying the columns to return in your select query.

Hello,

Regrettably there isn't any FormControls documentation available so far. You can contribute to the quality of our documentation by filling out the form posted here.
