| John,
I can see it on my V2.01 release as follows:-
Data Controls tab
-----> Far Right control DBCtrlGrid
Check this out. I found it by going into Help/Index & typing
TDBCtrlGrid. Then selecting the page. On it saw a representation of
the control's icon. I then looked for it on the toolbar.
Regards
Stephen Davies

It's not there on my system. I have twelve components under that tab,
the rightmost being DBLookupListBox (or something similar), No sign of
a DBCtrlGrid anywhere.

| Apparently this is one of the controls that isn't in Delphi Desktop
edition (which is what I have). As I need this control, I'm upgrading
to the developer edition.

| One of the controls I was hoping to put in my DBCtrlGrid was a DBImage
(displaying a BLOB graphic from the database). However, Delphi 2
complains when I try to drop either a DBMemo or DBImage control onto
the DBCtrlGrid, saying that I can't use those types of control in a
DBCtrlGrid.
I guess I can paint the images myself (in a handler for the
OnPaintPanel event), but that seems a little clumsy, particularly as
that event doesn't tell me the coordinates of the panel that wants to
be painted, so I'd have to calculate that from the row/column of the
panel, and so if a future version of the VCL changes the sizes of the
gutters between panels, my images would be drawn in the wrong places.
Is this (replicating DBImage controls within a DBCtrlGrid) supported
under Delphi 3? If so, I'll wait until my upgrade arrives. If not, is
there any way to do this other than painting the images myself?

| I guess procrastination is sometimes worthwhile - Delphi 3 supports
replicated DBImage controls on a DBCtrlGrid just fine. So I guess I
can get away without having to paint my own panels.
