I am trying to create a form that displays a MS DataGrid Control 6.0 to list
records from a SQL db for importing into Outlook. For some reason I can't
set the DataSource property (it's not there). However, in VB6 it is. Any
clues / suggestions would be appreciated. I want to use the ADO DataControl
for db conectivity.

TIA

Rob

In general grid controls on Outlook forms cannot be bound to a data source,
you have to get a recordset yourself and populate the grid using code to put
one row at a time in the grid.
