Hello,
I would like to inform you that if you plan to use your grids mainly in bound mode and require advanced features such as splits and hierarchical views, True DBGrid for WinForms is the better choice.
Please refer to the following documentation link and blog post which will help you in implementing the same in C1TrueDBGrid :
