Editable report-like control

Hamed Musavi

Hi. I want to create a control that lets user to edit records he/she created in a long while like say a year or two. To show what I have in mind I created a picture: http://sarvsoft.com/RecordEditControl.GIF[^] In Asp.net I had an option called Edit template which would solve exactly such problems: A set of repetitive controls. I took a look at DataGridView and it seems not to have such an option. What do you suggest? 1. Create my own custom control. 2. Use DataGridColumnStyle along with a DataGridView, I'm not sure if this works. Never did it before. 3. There is a better way? Thanks a lot in advanced. :rose:

There is a VB.NET Power Pack that has a DataRepeater control in it that should do what you want. Here[^]

Thanks for the link. I have to do it in C# but it will be a help anyway.

I just finished adding it to my C# project and it works great. It did exactly what I wanted. I don't know what to say to express my thanks. It saved me a lot of time. Your help is really appreciated. Thank you again and so much. :rose: :rose:
