I attempted that:

I pressed the HTML tab on the design surface and simply placed the tags before and after the datagrid definition.

<div style="height: 256px; overflow: auto">
  <asp:.....
</div>

However, at run time, the grid was no longer where I placed it on the form. I lost the ability to drag and drop the control. Was I correct in going to the HTML tab or is there a better way to to this?

>>Data grids are great. Especially if they are a mm.net subclass of the base class datagrid. The problem with the datagrid is that they grow in height as a function of the size of the dataset. I have a size limited specific area on my web form that I would like to place a datagrid control. If the dataset is less than 6 records the space allocated is respected by the datagrid. But if the dataset gets too big, the datagrid starts to step on everything in it's path. I am having a problem with screen realstate so I googled the web for a scrollable grid. MakeItScroll by Bertoni Software, www.makeitscroll.com/ , fits the bill. I can set height, width and turn on vertical and horizontial scroll bars. It lacks however, the familar Binding Source, Binding Source Member properties and much of the mm.net datagrid functionality. Bertoni sells the dll. No source code. How can I get around the limitations?
