Very flexible grid for ASP.NET

[Marc Scheuner]

Folks,

I have a project at hand where I'll need a really flexible grid for
ASP.NET. The standard row/column model doesn't cut it - I need to
specifically be able to tell each individual cell what kind of cell it
is (e.g. showing text, rendering an image etc.).

Most standard grids will allow you to define your own grid column
types - but that's not sufficient for my case here.

Does anyone know of a ready-made grid out there that will allow me to
specify on a cell-by-cell basis what kind of cell it is (and how to
render itself) ??

If not: has anyone tackled that problem before and come up with a
solution based on the standard ASP.NET GridView control??

Thanks for any hints and pointers !

Hi,,

First of all asp.net grid view have this facility if you think
carefully...
in item databound you can modity the style of each cell .... depending
on your need...

Other famouse asp.net thirdparty grid's are ...
telerik (http://www.telerik.com/) asp.net rad grid...
,Component Art (http://www.componentart.com/) asp.net grid
and
Infragistics asp.net grid is good

Best of luck

You can make the grid out of template columns, include in the templates
whatever controls you will need and hide and show individual controls
programmatically in RowDataBound event depending on the actual data.

I would recommend you to go to http://www.componentsource.com and select
the grid from the variety of all grids
