The ItemPosition property gets the item's position in the children items list. You can use the ItemPosition property to change the item's position after it been added to collection. When the control sorts the tree, the item for each position can be changed, so you can use the item's handle or item's index to identify an item. Use the SortChildren method to sort the child items. Use the SortOrder property to sort a column. The FormatColumn event is fired before displaying a cell, so you can handle the FormatColumn to display anything on the cell at runtime. This way you can display the row position, you can display the value using the currency format, and so on. The FireFormatColumn property allows the control to fire the FormatColumn event for the column. The Position property specifies the position of the column.

• If your chart does not display a tree or a hierarchy this property is ok to be used with FormatColumn event to display the position

The following VB sample handles the FormatColumn event to display the row position:

Private Sub G2antt1_FormatColumn(ByVal Item As EXG2ANTTLibCtl.HITEM, ByVal ColIndex As Long, Value As Variant)
    Value = G2antt1.Items.ItemPosition(Item)
End Sub 

• If your chart displays a tree or a hierarchy the position of the item must be determined relative to the FirstVisibleItem as shown in the following VB sample:

Private Sub G2antt1_FormatColumn(ByVal Item As EXG2ANTTLibCtl.HITEM, ByVal ColIndex As Long, Value As Variant)
    Value = G2antt1.ScrollPos(True) + RelPos(Item)
End Sub

Private Function RelPos(ByVal hVisible As Long) As Long
    With G2antt1.Items
        Dim h As Long, i As Long, n As Long
        i = 0
        n = .VisibleCount + 1
        h = .FirstVisibleItem
        While (i <= n) And h <> 0 And h <> hVisible
            i = i + 1
            h = .NextVisibleItem(h)
        Wend
        RelPos = i
    End With
End Function
