# Range Handle

When working with cell selection, it can be useful to have a handle inside the last cell to enable the size of the current range to be adjusted.

## Enabling the Range Handle

To enable the Range Handle, set `cellSelection.handle` to `{ mode: 'range' }` in the `gridOptions`.

```jsx
const cellSelection = useMemo(() => { 
	return {
        handle: {
            mode: 'range',
        }
    };
}, []);

<AgGridReact cellSelection={cellSelection} />
```

The example below demonstrates simple range selection with a range handle.

#### Range Handle

```tsx
"use client";

import React, {
  useCallback,
  useMemo,
  useRef,
  useState,
  StrictMode,
} from "react";
import { createRoot } from "react-dom/client";
import { AgGridReact, AgGridProvider } from "ag-grid-react";
import {
  CellSelectionOptions,
  ClientSideRowModelModule,
  ColDef,
  ColGroupDef,
  GridApi,
  GridOptions,
  ModuleRegistry,
  enableDevValidations,
} from "ag-grid-community";
import { CellSelectionModule } from "ag-grid-enterprise";
import { IOlympicData } from "./interfaces";
import { useFetchJson } from "./useFetchJson";

if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== "production") {
  enableDevValidations();
}

const modules = [ClientSideRowModelModule, CellSelectionModule];

const GridExample = () => {
  const containerStyle = useMemo(() => ({ width: "100%", height: "100%" }), []);
  const gridStyle = useMemo(() => ({ height: "100%", width: "100%" }), []);

  const [columnDefs, setColumnDefs] = useState<ColDef[]>([
    { field: "athlete", minWidth: 150 },
    { field: "age", maxWidth: 90 },
    { field: "country", minWidth: 150 },
    { field: "year", maxWidth: 90 },
    { field: "date", minWidth: 150 },
    { field: "sport", minWidth: 150 },
    { field: "gold" },
    { field: "silver" },
    { field: "bronze" },
    { field: "total" },
  ]);
  const defaultColDef = useMemo<ColDef>(() => {
    return {
      flex: 1,
      minWidth: 100,
    };
  }, []);
  const cellSelection = useMemo<boolean | CellSelectionOptions>(() => {
    return { handle: { mode: "range" } };
  }, []);

  const { data, loading } = useFetchJson<IOlympicData>(
    "https://www.ag-grid.com/example-assets/olympic-winners.json",
  );

  return (
    <AgGridProvider modules={modules}>
      <div style={containerStyle}>
        <div style={gridStyle}>
          <AgGridReact<IOlympicData>
            rowData={data}
            loading={loading}
            columnDefs={columnDefs}
            defaultColDef={defaultColDef}
            cellSelection={cellSelection}
          />
        </div>
      </div>
    </AgGridProvider>
  );
};

const root = createRoot(document.getElementById("root")!);
root.render(
  <StrictMode>
    <GridExample />
  </StrictMode>,
);
```
