List views are cached - that means they're fast cause everything is in memory. List views also have column sorting (for every column) and no index required.

Listviews alos have a realtime slider - grids are snap to!

List views have multiple selects.

lIst views have keys.


List views are sexy.

List views are OCX (less plateform dependent).

With OCX you can have all your OCX navigators/listers flow through a single "node click" method - great for synchronizing modeless GUIs.


Grids are great for "analysts" that use VFP to (quickly) assess data sets.

Grids are really just browse windows with settings!

Girls prefer guys that code listviews over grid heads 10 to 1~:-)
