Instructions... Wonderful thing...

You know, you can learn a lot about the datagrid control by just reading
about it. =)

BTW, Jan's Grid is amazing... Anyone paying hundreds of dollars for a grid,
take the few minutes out to read how datagrid works, and you will never need
another. =0

Just my input.

Yes...

The datagrid...

Add a datagrid to your windows form/control

click it

Press F1.

Jan's Data Grid

http://dotnet.leadit.be/extendeddatagrid/

This grid is pretty amazing. The toughest thing I found with Datagrid (and
they cover this in the MSDN info) is switching from VB6 (a grid I didn't
like a lot). Well, with Jan's grid, and understanding the datagrid itself
you can really see how you can trick it out.

It is slightly obscure though. The tablestyle's property is where all the
magic happens in the datagrid control, but to get it to work properly (or at
least understand it, for me that is) you have to do a slight trick ( which
microsoft explains very well as to how, but not necessarily as to why.) For
example, to get table style to work propertly, you have to click
tablestyles, add one, exit... and then go back in and start manipulating
your grid formatting.

I've used a lot of other grids before (Janus, C1, Infragistics, buncha
no-namers) but never really saw the potential of win datagrid. I think
thats because some of the properties are misleading, etc, but could just b
eme. Reading about it helped a lot though, just take the time, learn a
little, and its pretty interesting.
