j - a property to disable column headers was always in the plan - just haven't implemented it yet. might want to see if Howards admin dll can push data through sockets [Wink] -

in terms of the dotnet stuff - i researched and studied a whole bunch of different interfaces for the listview. Everything from VB6 to Excel to MSFlexGrid to Custom third party grids. At the end of the day, it really came down to the dotnet or the Excel interface. And really, the only big difference was in the naming scheme, fe to set a text value in Excel vs Forms:

excel: $list.rows(1).cells(1).value = "j"

forms: $list.items(1).subitems(1).text = "j"

this is the kind of discussion i was hoping to generate ... the interface makes or breaks the component (imho) and I want to do whats right in terms of having the best interface for the job.
