1. RE: LV or EUGrid?
Hi Tony,
Well you know what *I* am going to say 
It really depends on what you are planning to do with the data - list
views allow some display options that EuGrid doesn't have and
vice-versa.
With regard to the performance issue raised by Tommy Carlier: as the
grid only paints the visible rows the performance is really only limited
by the number of rows and columns in the visible area - unless you are
planning to display large numbers of each then the speed should be
pretty good even on a slow PC. I wrote & tested most of the original
code on a PII 266 laptop and even for large datasets the performance
seemed OK to me.
I do have a new release pending at the moment (which includes some of
the changes that you asked for ages ago) - I just need to get the
documentation up to date and test it against the imminent win32lib
release.
I might be able to offer more advice if you can say a bit more about
what you want to do.
Regards,
Phil Russell

2. RE: LV or EUGrid?
Hi Phil,
I am leaning towards EUGrid as I like the ability to edit data right
there on the grid. The only thing holding me back is I need to be able
to select multiple rows. Which I hope is coming in the next version.
I'm not so sure I would wait for the next win32lib, as this could be
some time & then needs testing etc. Sorry dereck I dont mean to offend &
I love win32lib. Besides I don't want to wait.
Thanks Everyone,
Tony Steward

Give your hardest tasks to your lasiest workers.

Hi Tony,
The next release *does* include multiple row selection. If you wanted I
could mail you a copy of the new version - the documentation is not up
to date but the examples show multiple selection etc.
