    DataGrid/ListView control

    It would be great if you added a datagrid and listview control to the suite of UI controls. These would have the following extra features on top of the standard controls:

    • Outlook style "group by" bar
    • Filtering
    • Sorting

    Most of the big UI component packages (Infragistics and DevExpress in particular) have this ability, but they are both harder to program to and don't have the same visual quality as your controls.

    Thanks,

    Scott.

    Re: DataGrid/ListView control

    I agree... I'd love to see Tim take on a datagrid.  I still haven't found one that fits my needs/wants: easy to use, yet flexibility and power hidden under the hood when needed (e.g. access to override just about any event/method/property possible -- especially when working with "unbound" data).  ComponentOne's C1FlexGrid is as close as I've been able to come, but it can be cumbersome at times.  Also, something that could mimic Excel's spreadsheet capabilities (not all, obviously) would be outstanding.  I don't know how many times I've wished I could add a flexible spreadsheet to my app, but ended up with something VERY limited.  This could be solved if (when?) Microsoft releases .NET libraries for Office controls...

    Did you tried Janus Winforms Controls? http://www.janusys.com, they have a very flexible and powerfull datagrid.

    Definitely would love for Tim / DivElements to develop data grid and listview components. Even basic ones to start out with to help with things like table maintenance grids and master-detail apps (such as Order Entry). Hierarchical groupings / sortings are nice, but overkill most of the time and could be added later.

    Will the final release of SandGrid support Visual Studio 2003?
