Best grid to use?

I am making a crossword, and to display it, I want each letter to appear in a separate cell. I also want to be able to change the background color of these cells at anytime during runtime.

I've played around with the "MSFlexGrid" and so far it seems good, a bit hard to work with though... Any others ideal for my purpose?

As far as grids are concerned, you probably get some varying opinions, people tend to have their favorites.

I use th flexgrids alot, so that would be my choice.

I am trying to make it so that square x to sqare y are selected... i've gotten it, but like the first sqaure is still white... Hard to explain, but like you know, when you make a larger selection then 1 cell, the first cell stays the default color.

So, I thought about changing the background color (which is what I originally wanted), but I couldn't get it to work. Any help is appreciated!


------------ UPDATE ------------
I found CellForeColor (backcolor respectively), but this can get annoying when I have to "highlight" some, then highlight another, while "dehighlighting" the old portion. Is there any easy way around this other than making every cell black again each time?

What I usually do is set the select backcolor = to the cellbackcolor in the EnterCell event. This way you need not be concerned with the selection color...;)
