Where can the latest VB version be found?

Brian Criswell replied on Wednesday, November 01, 2006

The only version I am aware of was posted by Rocky to a Microsoft site as part of an article about creating complex bound controls.  You will have to Google for it.  Alternatively, the website is located in a footnote of Rocky's first CSLA.NET book.

I updated it but only for C#.  You can find that one by searching this web site.

I found the one that you updated, I am in the process of converting it to VB.  Looks like it provides better designer support than the one that was out on MSDN.  Atleast being able to keep the column headings. 

On a side note, do you know how the DataGridView Columns automatically writes to the designer file of the form when the datasource is set to an BindingSource?

If you are using .NET 2 I would recommend that you use a DataGridView.  With a few tweaks you can make it look and act virtually identically to a ListView (minus the grouping support), and the binding support will be much better than the DataListView.
