Somewhere on net on one Blog I read a sentence that is ‘DataGridView something like Boeing 777, but what is goal when I do not know how to fly. Before I goo deep in creating my projects I wanna know is there alternative for DataGridView in C#. Something like jQuery in WEB api. The favors things which I am looking for is that is simple for using, if its posibile to be freeware and looks smoth and modern.
Best regards Admir
If you want to fly one person across town you can learn to fly a Piper Cub. If you want to fly hundreds across an ocean you need to learn to fly a 777.
There are many ways of displaying data in WinForms applications; which one is best for you depends on what you’re trying to do. If you want to show a fixed, non-editable, non-scrollable list of data you can use a DataList; simple and limited. If you want to add scrolling you can output the data to a scrolling textbox.
If you want to handle a scrolling grid of multiple rows with multiple, resizable, editable columns you will need to move to a DataGrid or DataGridView.
There are many alternatives to DataGridViews; simpler controls provide fewer features and more functional controls are more complex.
