What is the Difference between Data Grid and Data Bound Control Grid

Showing Answers 1 - 10 of 10 Answers

The DataGrid control is limited to displaying data from an external data source. The DataGridView control, however, can display unbound data stored in the control

The DataGrid control is retained for backward compatibility and for special needs. For nearly all purposes, you should use the DataGridView control. The only feature that is available in the DataGrid control that is not available in the DataGridView control is the hierarchical display of information from two related tables in a single control. You must use two DataGridView controls to display information from two tables that are in a master/detail relationship.
