Hi WS,

If you want to be with the ones who have strugled with this control in
VB.net and than did stop after a while and you have VB6 installed, than you
can look at the Com references. Project-> Add Reference ->COM -> Microsoft
flexgridcontrol

Just my thought,

Cor ,

its just that the gridcontrol in vb.net does not do what i want it to do and
anything that does do it cost money and i dont have money to spend on it i
am sure that it could be tweaked to my purposes but that kind of code is not
in my scope of programming yet? So i am just trying to see if the
msflexgrid will do what i want to do?

WStoreyII
 
no i had not but thank i will check it out hopefully it will have the tree
feature that i need becuase ill be honest i cant seem to figure out how to
do it myself?

Treefeature tell something more because that sounds more as a treeview and a
listview?

The free VB resource kit contains a free version with full license of
the new dotnet FlexGrid (by the same company that created the original
FlexGrids). The API of the dotnet FlexGrid is 99% the same as the COM
version in dotnet :

This FlexGrid has decent hierarchical capabilities so it should be
what you need. The major downside is that you can't get updates beyond
the version ComponentOne give you unless you pay 300$/developer for
the grid (or 550$/dev for their complete control collection). That
said the base version seems pretty bug-free so far.


You can download the complete vb resource kit here :

Or you can diretly get a license number for C1 stuff directly here :
http://www.vbrkit.net/?=ww

and then download a more recent version of their stuff here:
http://www.componentone.com/microsoft/MicrosoftNK.aspx
