  HI,

  You may use the code below using the HostedControl class to implement the same

  [vb]
  
  For Each r As Row In C1FlexGrid1.Rows
  
  If r.Index > 0 Then
  
  'Set row number
  
  r(0) = r.Index
  
  'Create Button
  
  Dim bt As New Button
  
  bt.BackColor = SystemColors.Control
  
  bt.Text = "Find"
  
  bt.Tag = r.Index 'Tag it so the button knows which row it’s on
  
  AddHandler bt.Click, AddressOf Button_Click
  
  buttonList.Add(New HostedControl(C1FlexGrid1, bt, r.Index, 3))
  
  End If
  
  Next
  
  [/vb]

  Refer to the attached sample

  Hello from Argentina.
  
  I have a question in regard to this post. What version of Active Reports do I have to be using for seeing the HostedControl class? I am using 2.6.20113…652 C1.Win.C1FlexGrid.2 and I can not find the class named HostedControl.

  In case the class is not present in my version of the product, do I have another way to put a button in a column in my datagrid?

  Thanks in advance.
  
  Regards.
  
  Ariel.

  Hi,

  Please note FlexGrid is part of ComponentOne(C1) and not ActiveReports.

  There are two ways you can show cell buttons in FlexGrid:

  1.)You can show column buttons in FlexGrid by setting its ComboList property to “…”. For more info visit: Cell Buttons | FlexGrid for WinForms | ComponentOne (grapecity.com).
  
  https://www.grapecity.com/componentone/docs/win/online-flexgrid/cellbuttons.html

  2.)The in-built cell buttons are shown on the right side of the cell and do not cover the whole cell. The HostedControl class is a custom class created to host controls in the cell. It is not part of any of our APIs. You can refer to the sample located here “C:\Users\UserName\Documents\ComponentOne Samples\WinForms\v4.5.2\FlexGrid\CS\HostControls” and the sample attached above to use HostedControl class to show CellButtons.

  If you have any more questions, please let me know.

  Note: The version 2.6.20113…652 that you are using is too old and we do not support to this much older version so I request you to upgrade to the latest version.

  Regards,
  
  Prabhat Sharma.
