DataGrid Components Messages   Related Types This message was discovered on ASPFriends.com 'winforms-cs' list. SG Can anyone please suggest me a very good Datagrid control to use on my WinForms. I especially would like to do database related operations through the grid. I found that building this kind of Datagrid in WinForms is much harder than in ASP.Net. Any kind of suggestion or help would be awesome. Thanks in advance, SG. Reply to this message...        Andy Smith um, If you have Visual Studio, I suggest you take a look at the Data = Form Wizard. __ Andy Smith Chief Code Monkey [Original message clipped] Reply to this message...        Per Erik Lorentzen The DataGrid for Winforms is very good, but quite a job to set up, yes, = and it also contains a couple of bugs... I suggest you put an effort in learning how to use the DataGrid with = databinding, columnstyles, tablestyles, event handling, data = validations, and so on... This because when you first get the hang of = it, it does the job very efficiently! See the MSDN or VS.net help sections on DataGrid, there are quite a few = examples there. Good luck!

Well DevExpress have got a wicked one. You can have the src to go with it from a g up. Surely the question should be "can any one recommend a good decompiler so I can save myself some money" Ah yes you might say, but then you have to decide whether to invest in a decent decompiler or an code obfuscator ? The free ones are hard to find and when you do the decompilers decompile class by class to a window and the obfuscators simply rename things - which I can do if I have to (I know there's a bit more to them than that). And the obfuscators don't work with asp.Net unless you eliminate renaming just about everything 'cos if you want it all to have some sort of generic structure to make it easy to alter you have to use ascx files .... The only way to get the obfuscators working in aspx is to use html rendering .cs controls. And then you have to wonder if these companies producing them are not talking to eachother and will progressively market each and every one of their capabilities and produce a godamn industry out of it. And all invited by MS to spawn commerce. Or you can write your own stuff. Like, I did. It's crap but it works, for what I want it for anyway. I got a grid that works ... its crap but it works. Can do custom columns, resize colums, resize rows, all that ... you know, click anywhere in the row and the whole row gets the focus not just the cell. Tell you what ... I'll swap you. Tell me how to something jazzy like drop down something cool from a combo (like a calculator- or anything really) and I'll post the src. I ain't saying it's good coding - just that it works. I could decompile devexpress but it ain't cool and besides it's too much hassle. I'd pay them the g if I had it, they deserve it.
