Which grid?
Hello.
I want to write a program that will have a grid like Listview but I want the user to type in the boxes in a way similar to Excel. Also, I want some cells to limit the user to a list, like a combo box.
I prefer ListView but I see that there are others like DataGrid, DBGrid, MsFlexGrid...
I tried with all of them but I can't really type in the cells.

Re: Which grid?
Up to how many rows and columns are you thinking? Is this a large scale or small scale project. If it is small scale, there are a ton of ways around this.

The user will enter some records, I don't think more than 40... The columns could be around 10. I also want some to be non-editable by the user.
At the end, the program will connect to a server and update a database.

First, since you want to be the one in control of the inputs, and second, because it will be uploading, I would suggest that you manually put in combo boxes, text boxes, and list boxes yourself.
This way, you can regulate all the control names and keep away from an overly large amount of variables.

I was thinking of that but I was hoping to take advantage of the Listview functions. Thank you anyway, I will probably use text boxes and combo boxes.

Maybe you want to have a look on this Its an ActiveX with I think what you wanted to have. Its full Basic source so maybe you can get it to what you wanted to have it. I did it as one of my first exercises learning to program ActiveX, so its for free.
