Datagrid or Table Control for my crazy report ?


Hi,
Im trying to create a "MS Project > Resource Usage" type o
application report. The manager will see his resources work hour
distributed along a default time period (say 1 month). He then has th
option to zoom in or zoom out of this timescale. So, say he clicks o
the "zoom in" button, the timescale should change from months to weeks
If he clicks zoom in again - it should change to days. Zoom out will d
the opposite.
Of course, to accomplish this, I need to create the timescale an
get the data dynamically.
Currently I am creating a table control dynamically and changin
the timescale - but its a lot of code.

* What is the best method to do this ?
* Should I use a table control and dynamically draw rows and cells i
it, or should I use a datagrid ?
* Any other ideas would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
A
