Hi,

I'm trying to make some kind of manpower organiser.
In a day there are several tasks that have to be done and I have several people hwo can do different tasks but not all tasks. People always work a multiple of 15 minutes.

What I would like to do is make some kind of grid with 96 columns(96 x 15minutes per day) and a number of rows according to the tasks.

Next to this grid I would like a list with the employees indicating the number of hours they have left.

The ideal situation would be that I drag and drop the employees in the grid, but for now an easier solution may be that I select the cells and click the appropriate employee to enter his name.

Now the question is, which grid or control can I use? Can somebody help me on my way?
 
There are more grid controls on the market than you can shake a stick at. Each one is better for a certain purpose than others. Basically they can be divided up as follows:
* data table type grids (displays fields and records: often data bound only such as UltraGrid)
* two-dimensional grids (x and y axes)
* card-type grids (grid is divided into identical cells, each of wich is divided into non-identical rows showing data or pictures or controls).
I'd suggest you look at the second type of grid. You'll need to do some legwork yourself. Try or ComponentSource as these have a huge range of components.
