A question about grid

Hello!

There exist different types of grid. We have databound grid which have a
tight connection to the data base table and
we have a grid which is not bound at all to any data base table.

We have used a third party grid called flygrid which is not bound at all.

I just want to know if there are any suggestion or recommendation when NOT
to use a databound grid.
It's much easier to us a databound grid instead of a non databound grid.

Hi Tony,

the question is : what is your really need ?
If it is easier for you to use a DataBound grid, so use it. I do not see
any reason to not do so.

Several parameters could impact on your decision, there are :
- cost of databound grid (if you do not use the one shipped with VS.net)
- maintenance of thrid-party component. usually after several months or
years, they are dropped down and it is an issue for customers.
- functionalities are enough to cover your needs ? if not, better
develop your own (it will solve cost and maintenance).

HTH,

Al.
