INFO: Properties That Are Supported and Unsupported by the Grid Control (209043)

SUMMARY

This article shows the property differences between the Grid ActiveX control (Grid32.ocx) shipped in Visual Basic 6.0 and the CE Grid Control 6.0 (Mscegrid.dll) shipped in the Windows CE Toolkit for Visual Basic 6.0. This information will be helpful when you attempt to convert a desktop Visual Basic application using the Grid ActiveX control to a Windows CE Toolkit for Visual Basic application, which can run on a Handheld PC, Handheld PC Pro, or Palm-size PC device.

Note The Grid32.ocx control is a Visual Basic control that has been discontinued as of Visual Basic 6.0 and is not installed by the product. It is, however, provided on the Visual Basic CD-ROM for backward compatibility. In Visual Basic 6.0 Professional and Enterprise editions, Grid32.ocx is located on Disk 1 in the \Common\Tools\Vb\Controls folder. In Visual Studio 6.0, Grid32.ocx is located on Disk 3 in the same folder.
