Custom Datagrid

[Floris Briolas]

Dear you,..

Hi I'm developing a custom datagrid. I'm unable to let the component
perform, i'm using pannels with labels upon them.

How does the DataGrid draws it's data so fast?

The overhead from using multiple Controls would be too much. Take a look at
Alex's article on writing Owner-Drawn controls.

You can apply the same techniques to a 2d grid control although this would
be somewhat more complicated. You will also find some techniques to add some
additional functionality to the standard grid control submitted to the
forums:- http://www.opennetcf.org/Forums/ do a search for GridView. For
example using a floating TextBox to simulate editing and applying
alternating row colours.
