Recommended Grid Control?

Hello all,

I have been a PB user just about a week now and I love it so far.

I did not notice a grid control in the widget list so my question is, what sort of grid control does everyone use and where can I get it?

Thanks in advance,

First, welcome to purebasic :)

I think that the best grid 'widget' ( we say 'gadget' in purebasic ) is this one by Xombie who have done a great work on it :

It's free like everything on this forum :D

But you're right, there's no buitin grid at the moment.
One day, perhaps...

Widget / Gadget, Eh. I had a 50/50 chance of picking the right term early this morning.

Gadget it is, and I knew that too. :shock:

Thanks for the link on the grid. I have grabbed it and will take a look at it sometime this weekend. At first glance, looks pretty cool.

I have seen SdDataGrid too. Its not free but it does look pretty cool. Anyone use it? It has examples for PB.

Another one is SIGrid from http://www.SoftwareInnovators.com

I've used it with PureBasic and PowerBASIC with good results.

Yes, I am familiar with that one but I have never looked at it. I seen that it could be purchased in a package deal with Tsunami Record Manager. But I did not take advantage of that offer.

There are also grids by CSAUER and srod that you might check out. I can't say much about them as I haven't tested them myself.

The nice thing about using one of ours is that the actual PB code used to generate the grid is right there and you can make as many changes to fit your solution as you like. Well, I'm assuming CSAUER and srod released their code. Pretty sure they did.
