    Dear All,

    Could someone tell me where to find the code example
    of grid control for win32 application in C?
    After googling I found one (babygrid), but it is not free.

    Thank you

      According to this 2002 CodeGuru article by the author, BABYGRID is free, all he asks is that you e-mail him if you use it in an application. http://www.codeguru.com/Cpp/controls/controls/gridcontrol/article.php/c5277 Maybe he has since released a commercial version, but this source is still available for download. You probably should have posted a link to the non-free version you found? You might check with the author if you are concerned, but my opinion would be that if he did not request that this article were removed, and since he apparently wrote it, the free-offer stands.

      Time to dredge this up I guess...

      http://sourceforge.net/projects/pwrgrid/

      A few caveats.. it's written in C++ (IMO you should generally be using C++ anyway), it hasn't been updated in quite a while, and there's not a lot of documentation with it. I was working on some improvements and docs, sort of fell through the cracks though.. if you're interested I can probably start working on it again.

      Thank you for ref. Will have a look, but me don't know c++, only C. The code for babygrid looks not so bad, but it does not support copy/paste function.

      There were a few things I didn't like about Babygrid, such as the columns will autosize larger but not smaller. I looked at the source code to see if I could fix a few things, it was pretty hard to follow, very poorly formated.

      I wrote mine in C++. There are a lot of benefits to C++, it's really worth learning, and not too hard if you already know C.

      The version available for download doesn't support copy/paste, but I've got a newer version that does... if I can work out some other issues with it I'll put it up for download.

      Brother :) the ones who really drown in C - cannot effectively catch the OOP paradigm of C++, imho. I don't want to start holywar, but thank you anyway

      2 All: Happy New Year and no bugs in our programms
