This release includes several new features requested by our customers. Some minor bugs were fixed.

What's New

  • Added ExportToTabDelimitedText, ExportToHtml, ExportToExcel methods to the grid GridControlBase class, which allow you to export data from the bound, unbound and virtual grid to a file or a stream in the following formats:
    • Tab-delimited text
    • HTML table
    • Microsoft Excel XML workbook
  • Added an article on exporting data from the grid.
  • Added an Export demo to the SimpleDemos sample.

  • Added a cell tooltip. You can turn on tooltips for cells by setting the GridControlBase.EnableCellExpandTip property to true. If you hover the mouse pointer over a cell whose text does not fit inside its area, a tooltip with the cell text shows up.
