Hi,

I just want to know what is the best to use:
DataGrid or DBGrid.

And,

Is it correct?
DataGrid is use with Adodc?
DBGrid is use with Data?

Please, inform me and correct me.
 
I personally like MSFlexGrids...I have had better luck getting the results I wanted with FlexGrids, but if you are going to be binding several columns to a grid and have to choose one, I would use a DataGrid, but then, I'm Biased, I had a bad experience trying to use DBGrids.

Good luck,
Kevin

I also like the flexgrids. I also don't bind my data any more. There is a bit more coding involved but I like the control that is gained.

Are you looking to only display the data or are you looking t0 edit the data as well? Individual cell and row/column formatting is easier with the flexgrid. You can also bind a flexgrid to your data with ADODC.
