>>>>I haven't been paying much attention to activex controls in VFP lately. Would appreciate feedback on what activex controls everyone uses for gui (ribbon, grid, outlook style controls, etc)? Anything really nice for VFP9 SP2? Anything even close to the Infragistics .Net Controls for winforms and wpf available in an activex that works well with VFP9 SP2?

I'm not saying its the only option. I'm just letting you know what I've been able to do - for free.

It may be overkill for some, but, basically I'm using the web browser control in a VFP 9 form to create a dashboard type display and one of the widget abilities would be to do rich text editing.
