    Posted: 14-Aug-2008 at 10:13pm
My company uses both ComponentOne FlexGrid control and Infragistics UltraGrid control.  I understand that Professional version of DevForce supports Infragistics' controls but not C1's.  C1's FlexGrid control also exposes a DataSource property and I can bind a BindingSource object to that property.

All I want to be able to do is display a read-only listing that consists of several key columns from a few related tables (e.g. Employee, Order, Customer, etc) so that upon double clicking on a row user can be taken to a detail form to view/modify detail information.  I can do everything except I am not sure how to perform databinding still using DF business objects so that I can take advantage of all the good stuff that comes with DF.  For example, when the user changes something in the detail form, I would like those changes to be automatically reflected so that I do not have to manually refresh the listing form. 

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks!

We don't support Component One, but we do allow you to build your own custom controls.  See the following post that shows you how to build a custom TextBox.
 
 
You could use this example to build a custom Componenent One TextBox what would support binding to DevForce ibjects.
 
Writing a custom control for 3rd Party Grid, however, is a fairly formidable task and would take weeks, not hours or days to complete.
