1) Where is the old FlexiGrid in the VB .NET? Can I use de DataGrid as a FlexiGrid, this is, adding rows and columns "manually", not directly from a database?

2) Can I set an Item into an ItemView to display justified in several lines, as in the old FlexiGrid?

Well I'm still a newbie using VB .Net but I'm finding that the MS data grid is far more flexible than the Flexi Grid it replaced. Remember although it's a Data Boiund control, it's not just rows and columns from a Dataset that it can be bound to, it can be arrays of data in fact almost anything you like, so that the Grid simply becomes the visible representation of the underlying data.

Also every property associated with the Grid can be modified, try some experimentation and you will see what I mean.

Top give you the bets answer I can, I am sure you can add columns manually with DataGrid. I only know how to thisthrough asp .NEt using the ewb form control version...but it must be possible with the windows form version alos I would venture to guess.
