Grid.MVC[^]
Pretty poor compared to the Web Forms controls (although, with some effort, it works ok)) but I think, if you're willing to pay, some of the larger third party control makers have some good stuff. Maybe look at Infragistics.

MVC is a framework - route maps for instance to enforce separation of logic.
If you want GUI components, try devexpress or infragistics, they are leading vendors

DevExpress, Infragistics, Syncfusion, Telerik -- take your pick.

When you switch to a newer framework, don't try to use it as an older framework. It's not the MVC that is making this difficult, it's the over dependency on the gridview (Just look at the QA section filled with gridview questions).
You need just one controller action with 3 parameters. It is little bit extra work. But once you implement it, you get much cleaner and faster gridview. (But I guess you already did)
Once you get familiar with MVC, you will not miss these rich controls. Instead you will like the freedom of creating your own controls, and your application will stand out from the crowd.

How about output the grid data as a html table or as JSON data http://datatables.net/[^]?
(it's what we do here! ^^)

For MVC, there're tons of jQuery plugins out there. You could use those. Check this site for jquery plugins, www.jquery4u.com[^]
I did use this one jTable[^] developed by Codeproect member. And this plugin is very good.

Two hours to go, the phone is silent, and I have a boring list of report formatting requests...time to break out the Bose QCs and rock out...starting with 'Diary of a Madman' then 'Blizzard of Ozz'! That should have me plenty amped up for quitting time! Happy weekend fellow coders!

Only about 45 minutes left for me. I'm cutting out a bit early today. It's been quite a long week. Happy weekend!

I got a new box yesterday. It has bells and whistles in abundance. It also has a 27" screen. Love it.

I still have the 24" from the old machine but 27" looks huge.

Ah, well that is very cool. 
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

I'd add the 24 as well if I could - in portrait mode. I have 2 by 22", one landscape and one portrait, and the portrait one is perfect for browsing, because you can get a whole page (or often a whole article) on screen at once. The landscape is VS territory! And woe betide any app which tried to encroach...except Excel, of course...

Lucky you! I am starting to get the itch for something new...current system is a little over 5 years old, but still quite good. It's a good excuse for housekeeping. One of the objectives on the next build is to bring down the noise level. I'm also starting to consider a nice laptop instead of another tower. You can get a lot for your money these days.

Sweet, I just got a Dell XPS 15 about a month ago, and it's been an awesome development laptop. The 3200x1800 QHD touchscreen is amazing. 
There are some nice 27" monitors out there. I've had my eye on [^] for my wife as she does a a lot of video editing. We just need to crank through some contracts to get some more money flowing in.

That is the only trivial nudge I have: the video is onboard so I can only get 1920X1080. I may have to buy my own video card to reclaim more screen real estate, sort of.

Well, now that you mention it, I visited the western US power administration operations center last week to see what they're using in the dispatch room. The entire grid is lit up on edge to edge Mitsubishi display units - LED, I assume - and updated in real time to show the status of every wire and switch and transformer and breaker in 9 states. The display is made up of edgeless plates, covering a wall 10' high and 60'+ wide. The operators have similar units mounted on hydraulic controls to move them up, down, forward and backward relative to the desk surface, which itself is hydraulically adjusted to be comfortable from a sitting or standing position. These individual desk displays are only 5' tall and about 8' wide, but the color and resolution is excellent. I'm just a tiny bit jealous...
