Display and edit open/closed intervalls

[MarcusZ]

Hi there,

we want to display a listgrid with different time-intervals (Name, beginDate, endDate).
For this task we are using a textField and 2 dateFields in the ListGrid. Now we want to add the ability to switch the last intervall.
either the intervall is closed (as the above) or the intervall should be open-ended and therefore it should display "open".
We also want to enable edting of the intervalls, so the user can enter intervalls. It should be possible to enter data like that:

John Doe 02/12/2013 02/30/2013
Jane Stiles 03/05/2013 03/10/2013
Dunkin Don 05/01/2013 open

Do we have to implement an own ListGridFiled-type? Do you have an idea for best approach to do something like this?

Best Regards
Marcus

There are various ways you could achieve this.
The simplest is probably to use a date type field and set "Open" as your listGridField emptyCellValue. Then your actual data would contain nulls for the "Open" dates.

Would this work for you?

Thanks, this is what i've searched for.
