You may also take a look on the grid control from the mCtrl (http://mctrl.org) project.

The grid uses WORD for both vertical and horizontal coordinates with few reserved values so supported counts of rows and columns are somethign like (2^16 - few). It does support label editing, custom drawing (more powerful then owner drawing), multiple cell selection modes.

mCtrl is licensed under GNU LGPL and its sources are available on github.

I was not able to get mcGrid(64) to work  with PellesC, Visual Studio community 2015,  Nuwen, or TDM-GCC-64 on Win 10 .
mcGrid_Initialize() returns false.

mCtrl example-grid x64 works in my Windows 10.

That looks a very nice library indeed.

I figured it out. I needed a resource with compatibility and/or Common-Controls entry.
I was getting a failure on mcGrid_Initialize() without it.

Fixed in the upstream.

Please if you encounter any other issues with mCtrl, report to them via e-mail or create issue at github. It's just luck I have found the report here.

Mity,

I would have been awesome if you would have started your own thread, instead of using this one.  Now there are two conversations going on in here about two entirely different controls.

If everybody agree I can split this topic starting from this (http://forum.pellesc.de/index.php?topic=6856.msg26317#msg26317) point in another thread in Chit-Chat or General discussion (which you prefer?).
