Xceed DataGrid for WPF is not only the most mature and therefore rock-solid grid control for Windows Presentation Foundation. It is also the first to provide a rich, fluid, and high performance user experience. This is possible thanks to its stunning, shaded appearance and capabilities such as inertial smooth scrolling and animated full-column reordering—which mimic the physics of real-life movement. Add to that the datagrid’s zero-lag data virtualization, and you have the fastest WPF datagrid around.
 
Constantly evolving—no other datagrid is updated as often—it has more features than any other offering and a flexible, extensible object model. It also provides unbeatable performance by handling millions of rows and thousands of columns, and integrates easily into any WPF app. It’s easy to understand why it’s the most-adopted WPF datagrid available and used by Microsoft in Visual Studio 2010 and by IBM U2 in SystemBuilder 4GL (SB+)!
 
Featuring rich in-place editing that delivers 12 flexible, themed, and themable editor controls that are also usable outside the grid (including a datepicker and a masked textbox—two important editor controls that Windows Presentation Foundation lacks) and powerful hierarchical master-detail and grouping, Xceed DataGrid for WPF provides an interactive Cardflow™ 3D view with multiple card layouts, as well as traditional 2D table and card views. End-users can switch between any 2D and 3D view on the fly while retaining the datagrid’s state.
 
Developed entirely for WPF and built for .NET 4 and 3.5, it also features high-quality, pixel-perfect themes, including Glass, Office 2007, and Windows Media Player 11. The datagrid’s rich printing support allows for easy report creation, while its statistical rows and functions can be used both inside and outside of a grid in any element. Grid data can be exported to Excel using XMLSS or CSV formats. Column stretching and column widths supporting star values are also supported. Automatic Excel-like filtering lets end-users better manage the data they see, as do the fixed-column and the custom sorting functionalities. User settings can be persisted/restored. Columns can be added or removed using a context menu. UI automation enables script-based testing and assistive technology. Finally, UI, column, and data virtualization reduces load time and memory usage.

Providing comprehensive documentation that fully integrates into Visual Studio, as well as C# and VB.NET sample applications, Xceed DataGrid for WPF is available in cost-effective team and site licenses. Standard e-mail support is provided with the product, but adding a Vanguard subscription gives you upgrades and priority support for an entire year.
