    What grid to use with .NET when using Datasets.

    My app returns a dataset from a webservice.
    What do people use in the way of grids, NOT 3rd party commercial grids that cost cash, to display the data in the dataset?

    Is it OK to bind the dataset to grids in .NET. I know in VB6 this was frowned upon, but what about .NET. I have been led to believe that this is OK, and is the done thing. Is this right?

    Use the DataGrid. There are tons of ways to customize it, and alot of it will seem very excesive (sp?) in the beginning, but you can actually do alot with it once you really figure it out.

    Don't suppose you have any examples of this do you?
    Simple example and a complicated one?

    Cheers.

    Unfortunately I just changed jobs, and I haven't gotten around to writing any here yet. I would try search goggle with VB.NET and DataGrid and you should find a bunch though.
