Thanks everyone for helping me through the forum posts, I'm attaching the source code of a wrapper I'm working on. The Janus Grid Control is still a work in progress since I'm working on a several enhancements.

I'm open to suggestions and criticism too

Hi,

how can i use your wrapper?

Thanks

Hi Fabrizio

In the first place you need to have a license of the Janus Windows Controls V.3.5, so you can reference the assemblies correctly in the source project I posted.

Then, you need to build the project to generate a dll that you will need to add in the Visual Studio tool box.

And last you can add any of the wrapped controls to your StandarForms or UserControls.



If you need screenshots just let me know.



Cheers

Hello Guillermo,



you have any update for your wrapper? especially for the GridEX?



tnx

And Timeline

Fabrizio,

There really isn't any reason to wrap a grid. Just use a BusinessBindingSource to talk to the grid directly. No wrapper needed .

Dustin is right,

The Janus GridEX is a monster, and with the BusinessBindigSource works just great!!.

Hello Guillermo Vilas,



I'm trying to use the Janus combobox wrapped using this example.



With the combobox Janus me back the following error:

InvalidCastException

  Impossibile eseguire il cast di oggetti di tipo 'System.Object[]' sul tipo 'MicroFour.StrataFrame.UI.Windows.Forms.ComboBoxItem[]'.

If I use combobox StrataFrame everything works regularly.



You can help me?



Thank you

P.S. Janus gridEx to explain to you my problem in the future

Hi Fabrizio,

I will check the error, though I don´t use the janus combobox very often since Strataframe added the multicolumn functionality to their combobox.



PS. What are you planning to do with the GridEx?

Honestly I don't know that I would even try to use their combo box as you will lose all of the automated populated features of the SF combo....which is extremely nice when you get into application development.
