I have used early betas and it is pretty cool….(even demo’d it at Teched before I found out I wasn’t supposed to<g>)

Yes, I’d vote for that.

I think that’s also similar to what MS Access has long had, as its datasheet view.

There’s a ?Jeff Woodruff who has his own low-cost datarepeater control (amongst others) – for asp.net only, afaik - I think I saw this about 12 months ago. Check out CodeProject if you need something similar (or I might be able to locate Woodruff’s component).

The Data Repeater control in Visual Basic 6.0 allowed you to create a custom user control, bind it to your database and display one user control for each row of data on your form without having to write any code. It also meant you weren't tied to using the layout of a particular grid control, you could display the data anyway you wanted to. It would be great if we had this same ability in Visual Basic 2005.
 

Data Repeater Control

The Data Repeater Control will allow you to display a custom set of controls for each row of data in your dataset.  This control will give you more flexibility then using a standard grid control. This control is similar to DataRepeater control found in Visual Basic 6.0 but it's even simpler to use because you do not need create a UserControl first.  All you do is simply drag and drop your dataset to the Repeater control and the designer will generate the controls for you. Vote for the Data Repeater Control

if you use VB and think this is a good idea for a control please goto the following link and vote yes
