GRID vs. BROWSE - which control is faster?

[mol]

I'm working on my project and I'm still using Browse control to present data from DBF files. In my opinion, it works very good.
But, one of my clients suggests that it is working slowly.
I'm wonder if somebody made test, which control is faster during creating or refreshing table - Browse or Grid?

I had some problems with grid some time ago. But, maybe it's time to switch from browse to grid?

Best regards, Marek

IMHO virtual grid is faster than the normal grid and I use that if I want to show more than 100+ lines.

Dear Rathinagiri

Any example / sample program using IMHO virtual grid

Hi,

Please see HMG main folder/samples/grid.01 to grid.38 demo folders. Grid.02 deals with virtual grid for a larger array. Grid.30+ folders deal with dbfs.

Hello,

Please take a look for the working sample below:

Wow! It looks just great Grigory.

[mrduck]

Please take a look for the working sample below:

Hi Grigory,
thank you for the sample.

I ported this sample code to HMG4 syntax and it now works. Can I add it in HMG4 samples/virtualgrid directory as colors.prg ? I will keep your copyright notice, add the porting info, and probably list the changes done.

I understand this code is for minigui... does it work without changes on HMG3 ? (I don't have it installed)

Yes, of course. ThanKs for your attention

Sure (tested ).

Rathi,
May be you can include this sample at the next build 3.0.40 at the folder samples\COLORS.TABLE

[Rathinagiri]

Yep. Sure.

Something is wrong in moving pointer in grid while incremental searching.
I will put some screens tomorrow. When I use browse, everything works OK - from about two years. When I've changed browse to grid - data presented in table does not much a content of current record of database.
