I'm currently in the process of migrating a large project from
Delphi/Win32 into the dot net framework using c#.
I'm looking for a lightwight grid control that can opperate in purely
virtual mode - something like the Delphi TDrawGrid where you just set
up the number of rows and columns and there is an event to fetch the
contents of each cell at run time.
I've looked at a number of commecial grid packages, and they've all
become overbloated by trying to be all things to all men.
Ideally what I would need is a simple project that I can use as a base
to write a component to meet my exact needs - either free or low cost.
Any suggestions would be most welcome
Yours

Hi,
Did you check IGrid.Net from 10Tec? It seems it's the one you're looking for
www.10tec.com

What about the DataGridView? It can operate in VirtualMode
(DataGridView.VirtualMode = true). I've actually tried it since I'm looking
for the same thing. It's quite fast. I was able to do thousands of cells
updates per second. I'm also investigating using the TableLayoutPanel and
handling the paint myself. I created a sample with this control also and
achieved some good results. I started looking at the TableLayoutPanel
because I was thinking that embedding custom controls in the cells (a
requirement for me) might work easier with this control.

Thanks,
Nick
