outlook-like control

[Alexander Bolotnov]

Hello all,

can someone suggest a way to create a GridView (possibly with DataGridView
in .net 2.0) that will look something like list of messages in outlook.
Basically, what I am trying to get is a Grid that will accept something like
TableLayoutPanel in it's columns, where I will be able to insert strings and
images into the TableLayoutPanel. So this will look something like one row
with a couple of rows of text and icons groupped inside of it.

Can someone suggest something?

I was trying to play with DataGridView - it has these column types but I
can't figure a way to insert something "layout-formattable" into them.

Thanks a lot,

Alexander.

I'm not sure about what you mean :S
but there is always this fully managed & free table control:

If you're in a war, instead of throwing a hand grenade at the enemy, throw
one of those small pumpkins. Maybe it'll make everyone think how stupid war
is, and while they are thinking, you can throw a real grenade at them.

well, what I am trying to get is this:

I need to insert a "table" into a row. This table then will have it's own
formatting - something like two columns and say two rows filled with text
and icons.

if you have outlook, have a look at its list of messages in your inbox. if
you narrow the list, its rows will become multiline - the subject will jump
into the second line.

You should be able to achieve that with most grids?
