Where is a simple grid?

[scotty]

Hello,

I am trying to install a simple grid for a
custom FTP application. Basically I need
to list:
FILENAME, DATE, and a checkbox for DELETE

Don't need anything fancy... I see MSFlexGrid and GridDTC as optional controls but can't figure them out. VB Help isn't ummm... much help.

Take Care,
Scott

The FlexGrid is probably the quickest/easiest and least Memory hungry Grid that comes with VB, it's really simple to add Rows to the Grid in one go, by seperating the Values in a String using the Tab Character, Chr(9), ie.

MSFlexGrid1.Cols = 3
MSFlexGrid1.FixedCols = 0
MSFlexGrid1.AddItem "FileName" & Chr(9) & Date & Chr(9)

You can then use the Picture Property of the 3rd Cell to insert an image of a Checkmark using the ItemData property of the row to Store wether the Row is Checked/UnChecked.

Alternatively you could use the ListView Control in Report Mode.
