Remarks

C1FlexGrid can be used in bound mode, where it displays data from .NET data sources, or in unbound mode, where the grid itself manages the data.

You can use C1FlexGrid to read and write Excel files (.Xls), or read and write grid contents to and from Xml files.

Classes derived from C1FlexGrid should have a LicenseProvider attribute so Visual Studio will embed the appropriate licensing information into projects that use the derived control.

For example:

[LicenseProvider(typeof(C1WFLicenseProvider))]
public class MyGrid : C1FlexGrid
{
  // implementation
}
