-The following fragment is taken from the file samples/grid/test.cpp. Note the
-call to UpdateDimensions, which is required if the application
-has changed any dimensions such as column width or row height.
-You may also need to call AdjustScrollbars. In this case, AdjustScrollbars
-isn't necessary because it will be called by wxGrid::OnSize which is invoked
-when the window is first displayed.
