Alternative(s) for TStringGrid for Delphi Prism

Question

Since I am starting to develop under Delphi Prism, I noticed it doesn't have any grid tool similar to TStringGrid tool that you normally see in Delphi 7 and below. Although Delphi Prism has a DataGridView, it doesn't easily lend itself for my purpose. In fact, every time I try to set it up and make it work the way we want it to in our software it simply doesn't work at all. From what I understand DataGridView really wants a database source to display data.

So, I would like to know if there are any alternatives to Delphi TStringGrid for Delphi Prism.

Answer 1

The DataGridView can work in bound and unbound modes, so you can use th DataGridView control like a TStringGrid for display data without binding to a data source. check some this link Creating an Unbound Windows Forms DataGridView Control.
