Introduction

After pushing the CListCtrl to its limits in trying to display and edit tabulated data I decided what was really needed was a dedicated grid control. I started writing my own grid control from scratch but decided to save time by modifying Joe Willcoxson's free WorldCom grid control. I tore apert his code and rebuilt it from the ground up in order to get it to do all the things I needed. The code has gone through so many modifications that I'm not sure if there is even a single original line of code. In any case Joe's code was a great framework on which to build.

Since the initial release at the beginning of 1998 there have been many, many versions of the grid - some better than others. There have also been ports to CE, an ATL version, and extensions that include a tree-list control.

The list of all those who have contributed and provided fixes, bug reports and suggestions is too huge to mention - thanks everyone!
