               DataLink, ColCount, RowCount, ColWidths, GridLineWidth,
               InplaceEdit, TitleOffset, OnColumnResize, OptWidth (making the
               'Grid' automatically size itself so that no white space is left
               at the right), VisibleRowCount, VisibleColCount, GridHeight,
               GridWidth, LeftCol, ExportGrid, ExportToFile, GridPreview,

               DisplayImages, DisplayMemo, DisplayBoolean, GridAutoSize
               (making the columns automatically resize so that they are as wide
               as the row with the widest entry), GridAutoWidth (making the
               columns automatically resize so that no white space is left at
               the right), FullSizeMemo, Cells3D (when False, the Grid has a
               Flat look and feel - also the 3D Cells can be any color),
               CellHints (when True and Columns are not wide enough for the
               DisplayText, moving the mouse over a cell shows the text in a
               hint window), RowColor1, RowColor2, UseRowColors (using the
               properties RowColor1 and RowColor2), MultiLineTitles, TitleCheck
               (which places a marker in the top left of the grid and enables
               the grid popup menu when clicked), BackgroundPicture,
               UseBackgroundPicture, ExportDelimiter, AllowAutoAppend,
               DrawFocusRect, EnterAsTab, HighlightColor, ImageHighlightColor,
               HighlightFontColor, ReportCaption, HotTrack, HotTrackColor,

               DisplayDateTime, SearchMode (when True, clicking on the column
               titles will display a search box for the column - Case Sensitive),
               ExMenuOptions and ScrollHints.

               It has the following new Methods:
               MoveToRow and CellRect (which is extremely useful if you want to
               drop other controls on the grid i.e. pop a dropdown list over a
               cell when the user enters it).

               It has the following new Events:
               OnColumnResize, OnMouseDown, OnMouseUp, OnMouseMove, OnColEnter,
               OnRightClick and OnApplyCellAttribute (useful when you want to
               change the colour of an individual cell, based on the value in
               that cell or some other particular condition).

               In addition, it also has the following Features:
               Design Time and Run Time viewing of images, including JPEG
               support, Flat look and feel, Grid Printing, Grid Exporting,
               Enhanced Scrollbar Tracking, Selecting and UnSelecting all
               records, Column Customizing and Drag and Drop implementation.

               It also has popup viewers and Inplace Editors for Graphic/Memo
               and Date/Time Fields. To use these and the Checkbox, simply click
               on the Fields or use the Spacebar, F2 or Enter Keys.
