    Question Better grids for vb6.

    Hallo, I use DataGrid and MSHFlexGrid for my VB6 Application, but this types of grid are very poor of functionality.
    Can you suggest me a better grid to use in my VB6 application, that has a lot of functionality like modern applications have ?
    VB6 is very old, and its grid too. Does a better and more modern grid exists for VB6 ?
    Thank you.

    Try LynxGrid.
    On Local Error Resume Next: If Not Empty Is Nothing Then Do While Null: ReDim i(True To False) As Currency: Loop: Else Debug.Assert CCur(CLng(CInt(CBool(False Imp True Xor False Eqv True)))): Stop: On Local Error GoTo 0
    Declare Sub CrashVB Lib "msvbvm60" (Optional DontPassMe As Any)

    LynxGrid has a known serious issue with the way using subclass. If OS locale is Japanese or PRC (LCID=2052), LynxGrid draw extremely slow.

    I also dream for a open source Grid control like Excel. But for ten years, I still haven't had it.

    I personally recommend Flexcell which is very easy to use. I used it for few years. But it is not free.

    Distinct features:

    1. Cells can be merged.
    2. Interactive with Excel
    3. Import and Export
    4. capability to put picture in cells
    5. Powerful Printing
    6. Internal build-in barcode and Chart.

    with few years experience in VB6, I think VB is lack of a good Grid control (comprehensive knowledge)and an unicode Richedit (COM knowledge). But both of them is a tough job (mission impossible) to create a ActiveX control by own. I don't have this capability yet.
