**ClearColumn, VIRTUAL**

{{blk2blue.jpg|blk2blue.jpg}}

The **ClearColumn** method checks for a value in the LastColumn property and conditionally sets the column values to zero (0).

The TakeAction and TakeNewSelection methods call the ClearColumn method.

**Example:**

**EIPManager.TakeNewSelection PROCEDURE   ! Must be overridden to handle out-of-row clicks**

**  CODE**

**  IF FIELD() = SELF.ListControl AND KEYCODE() = MouseLeft       ! An in-row mouse click**

**    SELF.ClearColumn**

**    SELF.Column = SELF.ListControl{PROPLIST:MouseUpField}**

**    SELF.ResetColumn**

**  END**

**  RETURN Level:Benign**
