Bob,

Feel free to download and try the DGH's open beta version. It's free
for 20 days and could change your mind about the non-intuitivity of
the datagrid object ;)

> I was one of the most vocal proponents of some kind of table object, because making one from scratch was sooo much trouble, and anything purporting to be database capable just HAD to have one! So I for one am very thankful for the Datagrid, although learning to work with them properly was almost as much trouble as learning Revolution itself. I am still constantly going back and referring to documentation on how to do one thing or another, and work with behaviors in general. Powerful, but very non-intuitive.
