Q: 

Why do InvalidateRow and InvalidateColum suddenly not work?

Suddenly InvalidateRow and InvalidateColum are not working anymore for my TStringGrid. I think happen about 7 days ago, but only today I realized that it is actually happens. I haven't installed any 3rd party controls in these 7 days. InvalidateGrid works. In some circumstances (it seems to be random) InvalidateRow and InvalidateColum seem to work - from time to time.

Any ideas?

Delphi 7, Win 7 32 bits

+1  A: 

I have found that this bug exists since Delphi 1: http://qc.embarcadero.com/wc/qcmain.aspx?d=81060

I will not comment more as some people do not like to discuss/admit that there are bug in Delphi (my original answer was already censored by moderators).

That doesn't answer the question of why this suddenly happened to you seven days ago. Go back seven days in your source control and see what changed. If it was working fine last week and now it's not, then it's not Delphi's fault; Delphi 7 did not change last week.

Nothing here was censored by moderators as far as I can tell. And you haven't provided any information to use to determine if it is a bug or not - see my comment to your original question.
