Firstly, thanks to everyone who has responded to my request.  I had a look 
at SGrid on vbaccelerator (www.vbaccelerator.com/codelib/sgrid/sgrid.htm 
for any body who's interested). It does have some nice features like 
an 'outlook' style and auto sorting of rows - and at the end of the end 
it's worth downloading just to read the higly amusing text in their demo...

I didn't notice anything on true/false columns - maybe an oversight on my 
part?.  Though if you really need checkboxes you can work around by 
setting the cell font to 'wingdings' and changing the 1's and 0's of a 
boolean column to chr(254) and chr(163).

In the end I went for vsflexgrid because:
(i) the properties and methods are similar to MSFlexgrid (as you would 
expect)
(ii) the documentation (help files) are great
(iii) the documentation for Sgrid is minimal and I don't have time just at 
the moment to experiment with it. (This is not a complaint - sgrid is 
free!)

cheers 
andy
