In the 'free license' post you state <In another word, there are no feature restrictions even if you do not have a license. This allows you to fully evaluate the product before making the purchase decision. >

I found out that this is not the case with the current version.

I'm trying to evaluate using the web objects for a complex project that has a web site as part of the solution, and when using the MS grid I had some issues with width, and no scrolling.

I replaced the MS grid with yours, with difficulty, but your grid does not show any detail lines, while the MS grid does.

the code is very simple

DetailGrid.DataSource = inq.GetTeacherRoster
DetailGrid.DataBind()

I have no idea if the issue with is the setup of the grid, which does not allow creating from a template without a license, or some deeper difficulty.

Can you please help me in evaluating your product, I like what I see this far, but I want to test functionality before I buy.

Thanks, David L.

Hi,

The statement about license is correct ---- if you see something that's not working, then it's because of something else. It could be your style settings, could be an option on the class, or could be a bug on our side. In all cases it has nothing to do with license.

I am not exactly sure what you meant by detail lines. If you can isolate the problem into a small test page, we will be very happy to take a look and assist you further.

Thanks!

when I try to set up the grid, from the GUI, I'm unable to do so, as the grid object has no free templates.

when I bring up the design GUI I see: The Grid has no style settings, right click to select style

the free license window says <Free license is not available for this control type. Please check other controls.>

no style settings get saves, no matter what template I select.

when I run the test with MS grid I get the following data (header and 1 sample data line)

V1

V2

V3

V4

V5

V6

V7

V8

V9

V10

V11

V12

StudentName

Grade

AssementsCount

AssementRawSum

AssementRawAVG

AssesmentSum

AssesmentAVG

AssRVarFromGrpAVG

AssVarFromGrpAVG

. . . . . . . . . . . . MATTHEW 0 0 0 0

when I run with your grid, I see nothing.

Hi,

You will have to click "Create From Selected Template" button in order to apply styles from the template.

Thanks!

Thanks you for a good response, I was missing that step.

Does the grid allow for late binding? i.e. picking up fields names from the dataset?

I tried setting .AutoGenerateColumns = True but the only one column shows, the one I had to set up to allows for form display.

Hi,

No. You will have to write code to dynamically generates columns. This is because for a given field there can be multiple possible column types. For example, for string field you can use StaticColumn or TextBoxColumn.

Thanks!
