I had had enough of the grid controls bundled with VB, so I cruised about to see what I could find. VB World editor Karl Moore recommended VSFlexGrid Pro 7. Satisfied with their conclusion, I purchased the controls. You get 3 variants of the same control - an OLEDB version, a DAO version and a "lite" version. The lite version does not include the data binding so it cuts down on size if you don't need that facility. At first I was a little confused by it, as I was used to the way DBGrid works - this takes a bit of getting used to. In the beginning I experienced Illegal Operations when attempting to add records using the grid, but contacting Support kind of sorted that out (it actually cleared up by itself, but they were quite helpful and will kindly give you plenty of coding help). I've had it for a few months now, and I will never go back to the bundled VB grids. The options/customisations are limitless and whilst it takes a bit of getting used to, overall it's an excellent control and the help files give good information and are presented well.
