.NET 1.1 version of Datagrid available within VS 2005?

[Greg]

Am porting a program from .net 1.1 to 2 in which I've done some pretty
painful work in order to customise a datagrid.

On installing Visual Studio 2005, I can't seem to find the old data
grid, only the new data grid view. I understand that this can be quite
slow at times, and since I am writing an app for a real-time situation,
I'd like to be able to use the old grid.

Any extra thoughts on the new datagridview?

Greg.

Greg,

The DataGrid didn't go anywhere, it just isn't in the toolbox by
default. You can customize the toolbox by selecting "Add Control" (or
something similar) when you right click on the toolbox.

Also, your project will still compile if you have references to the
DataGrid, it was not removed.

Hope this helps.

Great, thanks a lot Nicholas, I really appreciate that!

Greg,

It should be there under the Data tab of the toolbox. If not, right
click and select "choose items". It should be in the list that comes
up.
