Access vs. vb .NET controls

[Guest]

Access supports subforms. The windows DataGrid control is a good analog for a an Access subform in datasheet view. Is there an existing control that can serve as a subform in form view or in continuous form view?

Hi PMC

This is a dotnet language visual basic newsgroup.

Is it maybe a MDI form, describe more what you want, most of us know only a
few or nothing from Access as a development tool. The database it self is
well known.

Visual Basic 6.0 has a DataRepeater control but it wasn't carried over for .NET WinForms. I've seen
the DataGrid control used for this purpose but that is the only solution I'm aware of.
