DataGridView Control Sample

This sample demonstrates several features of the DataGridView control in a master/detail scenario. The sample shows a parent table in the main form and provides access to related child tables through a link column. When the user clicks the link for a particular row, the related child table is shown in a separate window.

For information about using the samples, see the following topics:
