1.  I am considering including the Devexpress Xtragrid in a lot of my forms and have been playing around with it. Would appreciate some feedback from other users who have  used this control with SF, before I go away and invest a lot of time into this.

2.  When using a ListView , I used the PopulationdataSourceSettings. I don't see a similar proerty in a Xtragrid. I have manged to display records using the BusinessBidingSource by just setting up the Datasource and a few columns but am I missing out on something by not using PopulationDataSourceSettings ??

3.  On a Test form. I have a ListView and Grid side by side pointing to the same business object. If I change focus to a different record on the ListView, the record in the Grid also changes focus. However, if I change focus to a record in the Grid, the focus stays on the same record in the ListView. I would have expected both to be the same. Other than using a BBS for the grid and showing a few columns, I have done nothing else

I4.   will be using Parent andChild grids (i.e. Move in an orders grid and expect to see just the children from the order details..... sould I expect any issues with XtraGrid

5.  What about speed.... (The limited samples I have set up have not caused any speed issues)

I like the grid. I only have a couple of 1000 records and it performs excellent in terms of speed for me. 
I use it for input of data and have one column that is calculated from the input data. Works Great.
I use the BBS and have not had a problem.
It works great when you have Custom Fields in the BO's.

My project is not huge nor real complicated but I am very happy with it.
