Sorry this should have been posted in the .NET Form.


Hi Kevin

In my current VFP framework I have been using the listbox control instead of a grid to display data in a table. The text displayed in the listbox is obtained by calling the SetListBoxText method. The advantage is that I can do any kind of data manipulation in the method and simply return the text I wanted displayed. I began using this technique because using comboboxes in VFP's grid was slow and did not allow for data manipulation involving encoding, encryption etc.

I noticed that the Syncfusion datagrid allows something called formula cells which basically does something similar to what I have just described. What I am wondering about is if there is way to implement such a thing in mmDataGrid where the grid might be bound to a datatable but the value shown in the grid column could be the return value of a method instead of showing the table field value?

I realise I could create customer SQL statements to do some of this modification to data but having the ability to morph the data displayed is very helpful.
