easy embedding of (single or multiple) controls - particularly canvases, popups, checkboxes and/or radiobuttons. Coming from a Filemaker background I was very surprised I couldn't just drag controls or images into a listbox in RB multi-line text support would be nice variable height rows which could automatically resize to suit content - images, text etc Increased speed - my main issue with the current listbox is speed when accessing large datasets (>2000 rows) Some sort of built in report/print function Personally I'm not overly interested in split views but I'm sure others see it as very important Easy integration/replacement of the existing control. For me, as a relative beginner, this is one of the reasons 3rd party items can be a problem. Just when I start feeling comfortable with a built-in control I find it's limits and have to look for a 3rd party alternative and learn a whole new way of doing things. I also find the documentation of many of the plugins to be cryptic at best - aimed at more experienced users than I. I've just added some 3rd party controls to my project and it's been no fun at all. The controls are fantastic but the implementation can be painful. cheers //k _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
