Main Features

Comprehensive Functions
FlexCell provides comprehensive functions, such as exporting to XML, HTML, PDF, CSV and Excel workbook (no need of Excel runtime support), importing from XML, printing, preview, sorting, charting, cell merging, virtual mode, ownerdraw mode, etc.

Integrated Printing
You can print the grid with a single statement. You have complete control over paper orientation, margins, page breaks, report titles, header text, and footer text, or show a dialog box to let the user select and set up the printer. Title rows allow you to add repeating header rows to each page.

Well-designed Object Model
FlexCell provides 11 classes: Cell, Chart, Column, ComboBox, Images, PageBreak, PageSetup, Range, ReportTitle, Row and Selection. The Excel-like object model make the process more efficient!

Masked Editing
Input templates can be specified to automatically control and validate text input, minimize data entry errors. FlexCell provides following input templates: None, Letter, Upper, Lower, Digital and Numeric.

Enhanced Cell Editing
Use simple text editing, drop-down lists, date pickers, check boxes, cell buttons, masks, and advanced data validation to control the editing process. For example, you can use an input mask to provide a template that automatically validates data as your users type, or choose to prevent users from editing specific columns altogether.

Bound or unbound mode and custom data sources (For .NET Version Only)
Use the grid in bound mode, where it displays data from an ADO.NET data source, or in unbound mode, where the grid itself manages the data. You're in charge: create a virtual grid, bind the grid to existing data structures, use calculated "virtual" fields, perform data validation, or load data on demand.

Excel-like Charting
You can create multiple types of chart in the grid: ColumnClustered, Line, Pie, 3DColumnClustered, 3DLine and 3DPie.

Excel-like Cell Merging
Merge contiguous cells, making them span multiple rows or columns freely. Cell merging can be used to create merged table headers, merged data views.

Clipboard Support
The grid content can be copied, cut and pasted freely, and the text can be copied and pasted mutually between FlexCell and other software such as Excel, Notepad, etc.

Designer Support
The FlexCell Designer is a standalone tool you can use to configure a grid template and save it to either a proprietary .flx (.cel) file or to an XML file. Then at run time, load the template into the grid using the OpenFile or LoadFromXML methods. This provides a nice way to set up a grid without writing a lot of code, letting you format both the grid and cells within it.

Comprehensive Documentation
FlexCell includes a complete set of VB6, VB.NET, C#.NET sample code and help file, helping you to learn the usage of this control quickly.
