That's not true for the Windows controls. The 1 cpu EULA only applies to
the ASP.Net controls, which were'nt what he was asking about.
You get the license and you can use the TrueDBGrid and FlexGridPro in any
app you ever make, corporate or retail.
They are fully managed and so they work even in Autodeploy scenarios (I've
had FlexGridPro running in an autodeploy for about a year an a half, it
follows the app forms just like any other dll).
If you consider the light versions that come with VS to be valid for
releasing in apps then there is no reason to shy away from the real versions
that those were chisled out of.
ComponentOne isn't a fly by night company, they are the merger of Apex and
Videosoft, both top component vendors with history to the VBX days.
Sometimes using 3rd party widgets is silly - for things that you can code
yourself - but a Grid isn't one of them.
I don't know about you, but it would worry me more to release an app that
uses some of the iffy hacks that people have contrived to get the crippled
version to ack like the real version The one that is licensed with the
resource kit is a stable and proven build.
Hope that helps.

@newsread1.news.pas.earthlink.net:
in fact I wonder why
folks even put up with the freeware DataGrid when it's real version is
available as "TrueDBGrid"
Probably because people don't want to be tied down with extra licenses or
rely on a third party to provide support. And the included ComponentOne
licenses are only valid on 1 CPU machines.
