    Re: RAD Basic vs TwinBasic, Which do you prefer?

    I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder, as with the 'old style' I think that's much more readable as the fluent version. Compact doesn't always mean more readable.

    WOW, this is an excellent grid and the performance is also very good.

    A good addition would be to be able to add columns through the IDE so you don't have to create it through code for most grids.
