I am having a lot of trouble with these controls in VB 5.0.
Everything I read from Microsoft deals witt Access & Excel with VBA
Are these controls allowed for VB or just VBA?

Thanks

These controls are available to VB (what makes you
think they aren't)

However don't expect them to behave identically.

I agree that they are available .... but ... they don't seem to work
properly.

Their rendering on the screen is not correct. Garbage gets put on form
(under/as part of the form)
You cannot assign an array to them ... as described in the samples
You cannot assign values to the column headers .... (not bound to a
datasource)


They only seem to run correctly?? when placed on a User Form generated from
Forms 2.0

By the way I am trying to display multi-column lists (multi field vs. column
wrap around) with headers .... as available in MA Access

Any ideas??
