Showing a datatable in a form

[lsmyth1717]

I'm trying to keep things simple and display a table from my database in a vb form. I want the form to display like a datagrid. Is this possible and does anyone know how to do this. Is there some datacontrol which I can bind to that acts like a table??

Datagrid?
MSFlexgrid?
Listview control in Report mode?
or any of a dozen proprietory controls that you can buy as extras.

Just looking to bind a table of information in a access database to a format which can be viewed as a table on a vb form. Can you not do this or do you have any examples of this being done.

I used the term datagrid as it is used in .net to bind datasets to a control which allows the user to view information in a table like format
