Hi,
Does Realbasic support IClassFactory2 for Activex.
I am wondering if this is the reason why I cannot get the Componentone Flexgrid to work without displaying that the com control is a demonstration copy - even though this control is registered because it works fine in VB6 and VC.

Help!
Thanks
Chris

Real Studio does not fully support COM. I tried years ago to get ANY of the ComponentOne controls to work and never got anywhere. Until RB fully supports COM you're going to be out of luck.

This doesn't help your problem, but when I switched from VB6 I was really bummed my 3rd party flexgrid didn't work right with RB. I ended up customizing the listbox and am much happier this way, since I have a lot more control over it. An added bonus is that I can now develop for the PC on my mac.

What features of the flexgrid do you need to duplicate?

I'm having also having problems getting MSflexGrid to work in RB, such as:
Rtn=frmtime.grid.ColWidth(C)=1000
does not change the ColWidth even tho I get no errors (unlike if I remove the 'Rtn=')

I'm also trying to replace the FlexGrid with the RB ListBox and one feature that is missing is the ability to have multiple 'FixedRows' & 'FixedCols' (which don't scroll with the other Rows & Cols) ... any way to duplicate this in the ListBox?

If you need variable row heights you should probably switch to using the StyleGrid from Einhugur.
