I tried the interface method but it always tells me 'Can't add this object to grid' when I drop the class. It works fine for regular text boxes and checkboxes but I always get this message with a custom class. It maybe because I'm dragging from the Project Manager rather than clicking from the toolbar.

Thanks a bunch for your help. I'm just not sure why I can't make the interface method work.
