This quick start guide will walk you through the steps of creating a True DBGrid for WinForms application, binding the grid to a data source, and customizing the grid's appearance and behavior settings. You'll discover that you can easily create powerful database applications using True DBGrid for WinForms.

The quick start uses an Access database, C1NWind.mdb. The C1NWind.mdb database file is located in the Common subdirectory of the WinForms Edition program. The tutorials assume that the database file C1NWind.mdb is in the Documents\ComponentOne Samples\Common directory, and refer to it by filename instead of the full pathname for the sake of brevity.
